Subject: [PATCH 6.0 103/862] powerpc/boot: Explicitly disable usage of SPE instructions

From: Pali Rohár <pali@...nel.org>

commit 110a58b9f91c66f743c01a2c217243d94c899c23 upstream.

uImage boot wrapper should not use SPE instructions, like kernel itself.
Boot wrapper has already disabled Altivec and VSX instructions but not SPE.
Options -mno-spe and -mspe=no already set when compilation of kernel, but
not when compiling uImage wrapper yet. Fix it.
