powerpc: Use LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE only for constants on 64-bit
Using LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE to get the address of kernel symbols generates 5 instructions where LOAD_REG_ADDR can do it in one, and will generate R_PPC64_ADDR16_* relocations in the output when we get to making the kernel as a position-independent executable, which we'd rather not have to handle. This changes various bits of assembly code to use LOAD_REG_ADDR when we need to get the address of a symbol, or to use suitable position-independent code for cases where we can't access the TOC for various reasons, or if we're not running at the address we were linked at. It also cleans up a few minor things; there's no reason to save and restore SRR0/1 around RTAS calls, __mmu_off can get the return address from LR more conveniently than the caller can supply it in R4 (and we already assume elsewhere that EA == RA if the MMU is on in early boot), and enable_64b_mode was using 5 instructions where 2 would do.
