instruction generation for e500 based PPC cores in commit

The unknown reason was that my PPC64 failed to compile without  
it ;-) It was unknown because I forgot to mention that in the change  
log (my bad).


On Monday, I'll apply this patch and make sure that my PPC64 still  
compiles.

Thanks, if you can Ack the patch today if it works for you that would  
be great.

We are removing it because:

1. It generates e500 kernels that don't work
2. its not the correct set of flags to do this
3. we handle this in the arch/powerpc/Makefile already
4. its unknown in talking to Steven why he did this

I just tested this change on both my PPC64 and my 32bit Powerbook.
