microblaze: Fix msr instruction detection
Fix msr instructions detection. The current code just use msrclr for loading msr content and compare it with proper MSR content. If msrclr is not implemented r8 contains pc address. Previous code wanted to use MSR carry bit but if msrclr wasn't implemented carry wasn't cleared. Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <monstr@monstr.eu>

- * msr instructions works if not - cpu don't have them.
