powerpc: Use MSR_64BIT in sstep.c, fix kprobes on BOOK3E
We check MSR_SF a lot in sstep.c, to decide if we need to emulate the truncation of values when running in 32-bit mode. Factor out that code into a helper, and convert it and the other uses to use MSR_64BIT. This fixes a bug on BOOK3E where kprobes would end up returning to a 32-bit address, because regs->nip was truncated, because (msr & MSR_SF) was false.
