Right now there is no way to disable TEXT randomization on a PPC32
machine. text randomization happens even in the case of "echo 0 >
/proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space"

This happens due to the incorrect definition of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE at
arch/powerpc/include/asm/elf.h

Test details:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc,char *argv)
{
        printf("main = %p\n",main);
        return 0;
}

Compile the same as position-independent executable
