The Power ISA says that the fixed-point load and update
instructions must neither use R0 for the base address (RA)
nor have the destination (RT) and the base address (RA) as
the same register. In these cases, the instruction is
invalid. This applies to the following instructions.
  * Load Byte and Zero with Update (lbzu)
  * Load Byte and Zero with Update Indexed (lbzux)
  * Load Halfword and Zero with Update (lhzu)
  * Load Halfword and Zero with Update Indexed (lhzux)
  * Load Halfword Algebraic with Update (lhau)
  * Load Halfword Algebraic with Update Indexed (lhaux)
  * Load Word and Zero with Update (lwzu)
  * Load Word and Zero with Update Indexed (lwzux)
  * Load Word Algebraic with Update Indexed (lwaux)
  * Load Doubleword with Update (ldu)
  * Load Doubleword with Update Indexed (ldux)

However, the following behaviour is observed using some
invalid opcodes where RA = RT.

An userspace program using an invalid instruction word like
0xe9ce0001, i.e. "ldu r14, 0(r14)", runs and exits without
getting terminated abruptly. The instruction performs the
load operation but does not write the effective address to
the base address register. Attaching an uprobe at that
instruction's address results in emulation which writes the
effective address to the base register. Thus, the final value
of the base address register is different.

To remove any inconsistencies, this adds an additional check
for the aforementioned instructions to make sure that they
are treated as unknown by the emulation infrastructure when
RA = 0 or RA = RT. The kernel will then fallback to executing
the instruction on hardware.
