Subject: [PATCH] bcachefs: Fix build on parisc by avoiding __multi3()

The gcc compiler on paric does support the __int128 type, although the
architecture does not have native 128-bit support.

The effect is, that the bcachefs u128_square() function will pull in the
libgcc __multi3() helper, which breaks the kernel build when bcachefs is
built as module since this function isn't currently exported in
arch/parisc/kernel/parisc_ksyms.c.
The build failure can be seen in the latest debian kernel build at:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=linux&arch=hppa&ver=6.7.1-1%7Eexp1&stamp=1706132569&raw=0

We prefer to not export that symbol, so fall back to the optional 64-bit
implementation provided by bcachefs and thus avoid usage of __multi3().
