[PATCH] powerpc: Fix dl-procinfo HWCAP

Hi

This is a bug fix. There are 4 unused bits in HWCAP and space must be 
reserved for them in _dl_powerpc_cap_flags so the code iterates through 
all the 32 capabilities, otherwise you may get a wrong AT_HWCAP 
displayed when LD_SHOW_AUXV=1.

If possible, I'd like this in 2.23.

Regards,

Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Fix dl-procinfo HWCAP.

HWCAP-related code should had been updated when the 32 bits of HWCAP were
used. This patch updates the code in dl-procinfo.h to loop through all the 32
bits in HWCAP and updates _dl_powerpc_cap_flags accordignly.

2016-01-18  Carlos Eduardo Seo  <cseo@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

	* sysdeps/powerpc/dl-procinfo.c:
	(_dl_powerpc_cap_flags): Updated to reflect the entire 32-bit HWCAP.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/dl-procinfo.h: Code cleanup.
	(_DL_HWCAP_FIRST): Removed. Replaced by 0 accordignly.
