[PATCH] Fix sparse parse error in lppaca.h

[Bryan O'Sullivan]

sparse can't parse a struct definition in include/asm-powerpc/lppaca.h,
even though gcc can accept it.  The form looks like this:

        struct __attribute__((whatever)) foo { };

An equivalent that both gcc and sparse can handle is

        struct foo { } __attribute__((whatever));

This is the only definition of this type in the tree, and fixing it is
easier than fixing sparse.
