[PATCH RFC 2/3] powerpc/64: Always enable radix support for 64-bit Book 3S kernels

This removes the ability for the user to choose whether or not to
include support for the radix MMU in kernels built to run on 64-bit
Book 3S machines. Excluding radix support saves only about 25kiB
of text and 13kiB of data, a total of little over half a page.
Having the option expands the space of option combinations that
need to be tested, which is an ongoing burden on developers,
as well as increasing the number of #ifdefs in the code.
Given that the space savings are small, let's remove the option.
