IA-64 patch for error in unwind info

This fixes a problem with the unwind info when registers were saved on
the stack.  The previous stack pointer (psp) relative offsets were
wrong.  They are simple psp relative offsets in the assembly language,
but in the object file they are encoded.  The assembler must translate
from the input numbers to the object file numbers, and we missed this
step when the IA-64 gas port was written.  This patch corrects the
oversight.

This was tested with a binutils build and make check.  There were no
regressions.  This was also tested with a libunwind enabled gdb build
and make check.
