Currently using kvmppc_set_one_reg() a transaction could be setup without TEXASR Failure Summary (FS) not set. When this is switched back in by the host, this will result in a TM Bad Thing (ie 0x700 program check) when the trechkpt is run. This avoids this by always setting the TEXASR FS when there is an active transaction being started. This patch is on top of Paulus' recent KVM TM patch set.
