Gustavo Luiz Duarte 0f8f554e52 selftests/powerpc: Don't rely on segfault to rerun the test
The test case tm-signal-context-force-tm expects a segfault to happen
on returning from signal handler, and then does a setcontext() to run
the test again. However, the test doesn't always segfault, causing the
test to run a single time.

This patch fixes the test by putting it within a loop and jumping, via
setcontext, just prior to the loop in case it segfaults. This way we
get the desired behavior (run the test COUNT_MAX times) regardless if
it segfaults or not. This also reduces the use of setcontext for
control flow logic, keeping it only in the segfault handler.

Also, since 'count' is changed within the signal handler, it is
declared as volatile to prevent any compiler optimization getting
confused with asynchronous changes.
