[PATCH] selftests/powerpc: Adjust wild_bctr to build with old gcc

Currently the selftest wild_bctr can fail to build when an old gcc is used,
notably on gcc using a binutils version <= 2.27, because the assembler does
not support the integer suffix UL.

That patch adjusts the wild_bctr test so the type promotion to UL for the
shifts on compilation still happens but the UL suffix is absent on the
stringification, so the inline asm code generated has no UL suffixes.

Currently the selftest wild_bctr can fail to build when an old gcc is used,
notably on gcc using a binutils version <= 2.27, because the assembler does
not support the integer suffix UL.

This patch adjusts the wild_bctr test so the REG_POISON value is still
treated as an unsigned long for the shifts on compilation but the UL
suffix is absent on the stringification, so the inline asm code generated
has no UL suffixes.

Applied to powerpc fixes, thanks.
