[PATCH] Add CONFIG_POWERPC

[PATCH] Add CONFIG_POWERPC

[Michael Ellerman]

We don't seem to have a top-level config symbol like other archs do. We have
PPC64 and PPC, but I think it'd be cleaner to have just one for cases where
we really mean PPC64 and/or PPC.

CONFIG_PPC already means either 32-bit or 64-bit PowerPC (always has
done, even before the merge).

Hmm, but won't that also match arch/ppc ?
