Subject: [PATCH v1 5/5] powerpc/64e: Fix build failure with GCC 12 (unrecognized opcode: `wrteei')

With GCC 12, corenet64_smp_defconfig leads to the following build errors:

  CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:3616: Error: unrecognized opcode: `wrteei'
{standard input}:5689: Error: unrecognized opcode: `wrteei'

{standard input}: Assembler messages:

  CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/io.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:

...
  CC      arch/powerpc/mm/nohash/book3e_hugetlbpage.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:291: Error: unrecognized opcode: `tlbsx'
{standard input}:482: Error: unrecognized opcode: `tlbwe'
{standard input}:608: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lbarx'
{standard input}:608: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcx.'

-mpcu=powerpc64 cannot be used anymore for book3e, it must be a booke CPU.

But then we get:

  CC      arch/powerpc/lib/xor_vmx.o
cc1: error: AltiVec not supported in this target

Altivec is not supported with -mcpu=e5500 so don't allow selection
of altivec when e5500 is selected.
