Removed h2g() macro around the ka->_sa_handler due to the _sa_handler being a guest memory address
Changed the __put_user to put_user as it was attempting to put a value at the stack address but the new address is a guest memory address, __put_user is for host memory addresses.
Patch v2 -> v3, removed unneeded casting in the put_user call left over from __put_user

Looks reasonable to me, but I'd like an ack from Peter.

Untested, and I haven't looked up the PPC ABI to check that the
function is overall doing the right thing, but with those caveats:

Considering the state it was in before, I'd say applying the patch is an improvement regardless on how broken any code around it might be :).

Applied to ppc-next.

Forgot, this patch doesn't address the other issue I mentioned,
where

    env->gpr[4] = (target_ulong) h2g(sc);

is passing the guest a pointer to potentially about to be freed
memory and should be doing something like
   env->gpr[4] = frame_addr + offsetof(struct target_sigframe, sctx);
instead.
