powerpc: Provide a fallback for old kernels without PTRACE_GETREGS

PTRACE_GETREGS was added to the ppc kernel in 2.6.23. In order to
provide backward compatibility for very old kernels, add a manual
fallback.

* syscall.c (powerpc_getreg, powerpc_getregs_old): New functions.
(get_regs): Call powerpc_getregs_old if PTRACE_GETREGS is not supported.
