Subject: MIPS: Fix MSA ld_*/st_* asm macros to use PTR_ADDU

From: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com>

commit ea1688573426adc2587ed52d086b51c7c62eaca3 upstream.

The MSA ld_*/st_* assembler macros for when the toolchain doesn't
support MSA use addu to offset the base address. However it is a virtual
memory pointer so fix it to use PTR_ADDU which expands to daddu for
64-bit kernels.
