Michael Ellerman 816ae3cf3d powerpc/fsl: Fix mfpmr build errors with newer binutils
[ Upstream commit 5f491356b7 ]

Binutils 2.38 complains about the use of mfpmr when building
ppc6xx_defconfig:

    CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/pmc.o
  {standard input}: Assembler messages:
  {standard input}:45: Error: unrecognized opcode: `mfpmr'
  {standard input}:56: Error: unrecognized opcode: `mtpmr'

This is because by default the kernel is built with -mcpu=powerpc, and
the mt/mfpmr instructions are not defined.

It can be avoided by enabling CONFIG_E300C3_CPU, but just adding that to
the defconfig will leave open the possibility of randconfig failures.

So add machine directives around the mt/mfpmr instructions to tell
binutils how to assemble them.
