Subject: [PATCH 6.0 617/862] powerpc/64s: Fix GENERIC_CPU build flags for PPC970 / G5

From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 58ec7f06b74e0d6e76c4110afce367c8b5f0837d ]

Big-endian GENERIC_CPU supports 970, but builds with -mcpu=power5.
POWER5 is ISA v2.02 whereas 970 is v2.01 plus Altivec. 2.02 added
the popcntb instruction which a compiler might use.

Use -mcpu=power4.
