[Qemu-ppc] [PATCH 1/1] target-ppc, tcg: fix usermode segfault with pthread_create()

[Sam Bobroff]

Programs run under qemu-ppc64 on an x86_64 host currently segfault
if they use pthread_create() due to the adjustment made to the NIP in
commit bd6fefe71cec5a0c7d2be4ac96307f25db56abf9.

This patch changes cpu_loop() to set the NIP back to the
pre-incremented value before calling do_syscall(), which causes the
correct address to be used for the new thread and corrects the fault.
