powerpc/64: Use -mprofile-kernel for big endian ELFv2 kernels
-mprofile-kernel is an optimised calling convention for mcount that
Linux has only implemented with the ELFv2 ABI, so it was disabled for
big endian kernels. However it does work with ELFv2 big endian, so let's
allow that if the compiler supports it.
