[PATCH V2 2/2] kprobes: Mark OPTPROBES na for powerpc

[Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli]

Kprobes uses a breakpoint instruction to trap into execution flow
and the probed instruction is single-stepped from an alternate location.

On some architectures like x86, under certain conditions, the OPTPROBES
feature enables replacing the probed instruction with a jump instead,
resulting in a significant perfomance boost (one single-step exception
is bypassed for each kprobe).

Powerpc has an in-kernel instruction emulator. Kprobes on powerpc uses
this emulator already and bypasses the single-step exception, with a
lot less complexity.

Hence, mark OPTPROBES na for powerpc.
