Do the powerpc instructions use additional registers that are not part of the normal
GPRs saved/restored on a context switch?  If so, then, yes, you will need to implement
something here (though the FPU_KERN_NOCTX variant is a bit simpler as it disables
context switches and it's sufficient just to init the registers and permit accesses
without raising a trap until fpu_kern_leave).  If not, then you can make the use of
those functions conditional on architecture.
