selftests/powerpc: Add test to check if VSRs are corrupted

When a transaction is aborted, VSR values should rollback to the
checkpointed values before the transaction began. VSRs used elsewhere in
the kernel during a transaction, or while the transaction is suspended
should not affect the checkpointed values.

Prior to the bug fix in commit d31626f7 ("powerpc: Don't corrupt
transactional state when using FP/VMX in kernel") when VMX was requested
by the kernel the .vr_state (which held the checkpointed state of VSRs
before the transaction) was overwritten with the current state from
outside the transation. Thus if the transaction did not complete, the
VSR values would be "rolled back" to potentially incorrect values.

* See if the altivec state is leaked out of an aborted transaction due to
* kernel vmx copy loops.
*
* When the transaction aborts, VSR values should rollback to the values
* they held before the transaction commenced. Using VSRs while transaction
* is suspended should not affect the checkpointed values.
*
* (1) write A to a VSR
* (2) start transaction
* (3) suspend transaction
* (4) change the VSR to B
* (5) trigger kernel vmx copy loop
* (6) abort transaction
* (7) check that the VSR value is A
