PowerPC64 ELFv2 fix 1 of 2


Using the return value area as a place to pass parameters wasn't such
a good idea, causing a failure of cls_ulonglong.c.  I didn't see this
when running the mainline gcc libffi testsuite because that version of
the test is inferior to the upstreamm libffi test.

	* src/powerpc/linux64_closure.S: Don't use the return value area
	as a parameter save area on ELFv2.
