Subject: [v4 6/6] powerpc/64s: save r13 in MCE handler (simulator workaroud)

Testing my memcpy_mcsafe() work in progress with an injected UE, I get
an error like this immediately after the function returns:

After debugging we see that the first instruction at vector 200 is skipped by
the simulator, due to which r13 is not saved. Adding a nop at 0x200 fixes the
issue.
