[PATCH] Fix PLT call stub for ppc64

[Edjunior Barbosa Machado <emachado@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Hi,

GDB was unable to 'step' into a c/c++ function from a shared library on ppc64
due to a change in linker that removes a load
instruction from the PLT call stub
(http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2011-07/msg00141.html). This patch fixes this
on GDB, marking the mentioned instruction as optional, since it still might
appear if the linker is called with '--plt-static-chain'.

It also solves some unexpected failures in the testuite on ppc64 (verified on
fedora 17):

-FAIL: gdb.base/gdb1555.exp: Step into shared lib function
-FAIL: gdb.base/gdb1555.exp: Next while in a shared lib function
-FAIL: gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.exp: step
-FAIL: gdb.base/skip-solib.exp: step
-FAIL: gdb.base/skip-solib.exp: bt
-FAIL: gdb.base/so-impl-ld.exp: step into solib call
-FAIL: gdb.base/so-impl-ld.exp: step in solib call
-FAIL: gdb.base/so-impl-ld.exp: step out of solib call

Ok to commit?

Thanks,
