Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Fix check for copy/paste instructions in alignment
handler
Commit 07d2a628bc00 ("powerpc/64s: Avoid cpabort in context switch
when possible", 2017-06-09) changed the definition of PPC_INST_COPY
and in so doing inadvertently broke the check for copy/paste
instructions in the alignment fault handler. The check currently
matches no instructions.
This fixes it by ANDing both sides of the comparison with the mask.
