Low-power 35d43ba8ea Workaround for Linux PowerPC GPL-only cpu_has_feature()
Linux since 4.7 makes interface 'cpu_has_feature' to use jump labels on
powerpc if CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECKS is enabled, in this case
however the inline function references GPL-only symbol
'cpu_feature_keys'.

ZFS currently uses 'cpu_has_feature' either directly or indirectly from
several places; while it is unknown how this issue didn't break ZFS on
64-bit little-endian powerpc, it is known to break ZFS with many Linux
versions on both 32-bit and 64-bit big-endian powerpc.

Until this issue is fixed in Linux, we have to workaround it by
overriding affected inline functions without depending on
'cpu_feature_keys'.

Romain Dolbeau 35b07497c6 Add AltiVec RAID-Z
Implements the RAID-Z function using AltiVec SIMD.
This is basically the NEON code translated to AltiVec.

Note that the 'fletcher' algorithm requires 64-bits
operations, and the initial implementations of AltiVec
(PPC74xx a.k.a. G4, PPC970 a.k.a. G5) only has up to
32-bits operations, so no 'fletcher'.
