Matt reported that scripts/decodecode doesn't work for the instruction
dump in the powerpc oops output. Although there are scripts around that
can decode it, it would be preferable if the standard in-tree script
worked.

All other arches prefix the instruction dump with "Code:", and that's
what the script looks for, so use that.

The script then works as expected:

  $ CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux-gnu- ./scripts/decodecode
  Code:
  fbc1fff0 f821ffc1 7c7d1b78 7c9c2378 ebc30028 7fdff378 48000018 60000000
  60000000 ebff0008 7c3ef840 41820048 <815f0060> e93f0000 5529077c 7d295378
  ^D

  All code
  ========
     0:   f0 ff c1 fb     std     r30,-16(r1)
     4:   c1 ff 21 f8     stdu    r1,-64(r1)
     8:   78 1b 7d 7c     mr      r29,r3
     ...

Note that the script doesn't cope well with printk timestamps or printk
caller info.
