Now there is no way to disable TEXT randomization on a PPC32/PPC64
machine. Text randomization happens even in the case of "echo 0 >
/proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space"

This happens due to the incorrect definition of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE
at arch/powerpc/include/asm/elf.h

The function randomize_et_dyn is redundant and is removed.
