powerpc: Handle VSX alignment faults correctly in little-endian mode



This patch fixes the handling of VSX alignment faults in little-endian
mode (the current code assumes the processor is in big-endian mode).

The patch also makes the handlers clear the top 8 bytes of the register
when handling an 8 byte VSX load.

This is based on 2.6.32.
