powerpc: Prepare to build with generic entry/exit framework
This patch introduces preparatory changes needed to support building
PowerPC with the generic entry/exit (irqentry) framework.
The following infrastructure updates are added:
- Add a syscall_work field to struct thread_info to hold SYSCALL_WORK_* flags.
- Provide a stub implementation of arch_syscall_is_vdso_sigreturn(),
returning false for now.
- Introduce on_thread_stack() helper to detect if the current stack pointer
lies within the task’s kernel stack.
These additions enable later integration with the generic entry/exit
infrastructure while keeping existing PowerPC behavior unchanged.
No functional change is intended in this patch.
