[PATCH] ppc64: fix compilation with recent toolchains
The ppc64 toolchains don't create dot symbols (i.e. a globally visible ".foo" symbol for the text of function foo) any more. This breaks the kernel compile because we refer to function text addresses in the system call table. Fortunately there is an option, -mcall-aixdesc, which restores the previous behaviour, and even more fortunately, old ppc64 toolchains understand the option as well as new ones. This patch adds -mcall-aixdesc to CFLAGS in arch/ppc64/Makefile.
