This commit is OK on its own, but it doesn't have any effect unless the
full series up to 914d081ead11 ("Revert "powerpc/ps3_defconfig: Disable
PPC64_BIG_ENDIAN_ELF_ABI_V2"") is backported.

I don't think the full series warrants backporting, it's really enabling
a new feature (ELFv2 build for ps3).

So IMHO please drop this patch from 6.6, 6.7, 6.8.

cheers
