powerpc: Clear ELF personality flag if ELFv2 is not requested.
powerpc: Clear ELF personality flag if ELFv2 is not requested. The POWER kernel uses a personality flag to determine whether it should be setting up function descriptors or not (per the updated ABI). This flag wasn't being cleared on a new process but instead was being inherited. The visible effect was that an ELFv2 binary could not execve to an ELFv1 binary.
