This was needed on HPPA (and possibly other archs), because a function
pointer can hold either the function's address, or that of a function
description (plabel), but we need the address of the function itself.

How would you prefer this to be handled?  Would a 'tcg_const_funcptr'
macro added to tcg.h and used in tcg_gen_helper_*_*() be okay?
