powerpc/64: Define ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE for 64-bit
This is used in poison.h to offset poison values so that they don't point directly into user space. The value we choose sits roughly between user and kernel space, which means on their own the poison values don't point anywhere useful. If an attacker can cause an access at some offset from the poison value then we may still be in trouble, but by putting the poison values between user and kernel space we maximise the required size of that offset.
