[PATCH] powerpc: build time sort extable

[Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>]

Can we just switch this on? Powerpc does not use relative extables
(that's a nice exercise left for the reader), so it should just use
the standard sort.

This patch seems to work, famous last words...

Sorting probably only takes a few ms on any real hardware, but on on
very large kernel configs, extable sorting can take several seconds in
simulators and be a noticable cost to booting.
