kexec/ppc64: bring up new ppc64le architecture
This patch provides support for the new Power PC litte endian (LE) mode. The LE mode only differs in the way the instructions and data are stored in memory thus there is no real need to duplicate the ppc64 code. However some compilation's options, especially for the purgatory, differ between little and big endian mode's support. A new "SUBARCH" build variable is introduced which is currently only used for PPC64 to specify the endianness. Another set of changes in this patch is fixing minor endianess issues in the ppc64 code and fix an alignment issue raised on Power7 little endian mode. Among these fixes, the check on the kernel binary endianess is removed, since we can imagine kexecing a LE kernel from a BE environment, as far as the specified root filesystem and initrd file are containing the right binaries. This patch depends on the patch "kexec/ppc64: use common architecture fs2dt.c file" I sent earlier on the kexec mailing list.
