I have a debugger that runs in an application that requires access to
the SE and BE bits.  The following patch adds that capability to
2.4.21-ben1.  I have tested this, and gdb still seems to correctly step
out of signal handlers, and it seems to work for 4xx.  Does this look ok?
Please change MSR_SE->MSR_DWE in the 4xx-specific sections.  Also,
a comment should be added to each generic section use of MSR_SE to
make it clear that this is the BookE/4xx MSR_DWE.
