powerpc: Add support for setting SPRN_TIDR
We need the SPRN_TIDR to be set for use with fast thread-wakeup (core- to-core wakeup) and also with CAPI. Each thread in a process needs to have a unique id within the process. But for now, we assign globally unique thread ids to all threads in the system.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
