Subject: [PATCH 04/11] powerpc/32: add CLR_MSR_WE() in EXCEPTION_PROLOG in
 head_32.h

Add CLR_MSR_WE() macro to allow 40x to clear
that bit from the register containing msr value.

This is the only difference between common EXCEPTION_PROLOG
and 40x one. This patch will allow 40x to use the common one.
