* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/elision-trylock.c
	(__lll_trylock_elision): Fix setting of adapt_count.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/htm.h
	(_ABORT_PERSISTENT): Define to clarify persistent aborts.
	(_ABORT_NESTED_TRYLOCK): Renumber, and make persistent.
	(_ABORT_SYSCALL): Renumber, and clarify definition.
	(_ABORT_LOCK_BUSY): Renumber, make non-persistent.
