powerpc/64: Linker on-demand sfpr functions for modules

For final link, the powerpc64 linker generates fpr save/restore
functions on-demand, placing them in the .sfpr section. Starting with
binutils 2.25, these can be provided for non-final links with
--save-restore-funcs. Use that where possible for module links.

This saves about 200 bytes per module (~60kB) on powernv defconfig
build.
