powerpc: Fix operand prefixes
The file sysdeps/powerpc/sysdeps.h defines aliases for condition register
operands. E.g.: 'cr7' means condition register 7. On the one hand, this
increases readability, as it makes it easier for readers to know whether the
operand is a condition register, a general purpose register or an immediate.
On the other hand, this permits that condition registers be written as if they
were general purpose, and vice-versa, thus reducing the readability of the
code.
This commit removes some of these unintentional misuses.
The changes have no effect on the final code. Checked with objdump.
