4f82590078 powerpc/sstep: Add tests for Prefixed Add Immediate
Use the existing support for testing compute type instructions to test
Prefixed Add Immediate (paddi). The R bit of the paddi instruction
controls whether current instruction address is used. Add test cases
for when R=1 and for R=0. paddi has a 34 bit immediate field formed by
concatenating si0 and si1. Add tests for the extreme values of this
field.

Skip the paddi tests if ISA v3.1 is unsupported.

Some of these test cases were added by Balamuruhan S.

84022ac173 powerpc: sstep: Add tests for compute type instructions
This enhances the current selftest framework for validating
the in-kernel instruction emulation infrastructure by adding
support for compute type instructions i.e. integer ALU-based
instructions. Originally, this framework was limited to only
testing load and store instructions.

While most of the GPRs can be validated, support for SPRs is
limited to LR, CR and XER for now.

When writing the test cases, one must ensure that the Stack
Pointer (GPR1) or the Thread Pointer (GPR13) are not touched
by any means as these are vital non-volatile registers.
