Okay I was missing mcall-aixdesc, thanks again to Alan for pointing
it out.
This updated patch seems to do better, and it builds BE kernel with
powerpc64le-gcc, and LE with powerpc64-gcc here (I did see a link
failure but then couldn't reproduce it so it might have been a stale
file hanging around somewhere).

Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: allow compilation on cross-endian toolchain
GCC can compile with either endian, but the ABI version always
defaults to the default endian. Alan Modra says:
you need both -mbig and -mabi=elfv1 to make a powerpc64le gcc
generate powerpc64 code
The opposite is true for powerpc64 when generating -mlittle it
requires -mabi=elfv2 to generate v2 ABI. This change adds ABI
annotations together with endianness. The kernel with ELFv2 ABI
also uses -mcall-aixdesc, but boot/ does not.
