For powerpc64, redefine the ppc_inst type so both word and prefixed
instructions can be represented. On powerpc32 the type will remain the
same. Update places which had assumed instructions to be 4 bytes long.

[mpe: Rework the get_user_inst() macros to be parameterised, and don't
assign to the dest if an error occurred. Use CONFIG_PPC64 not
__powerpc64__ in a few places. Address other comments from
Christophe. Fix some sparse complaints.]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
