signal/powerpc: On swapcontext failure force SIGSEGV
commit 83a1f27ad773b1d8f0460d3a676114c7651918cc upstream. If the register state may be partial and corrupted instead of calling do_exit, call force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV). Which properly kills the process with SIGSEGV and does not let any more userspace code execute, instead of just killing one thread of the process and potentially confusing everything.
