Debian ppc64el will wait for the 'powerpc/boot: 64bit little endian wrapper'
(zImage) patches upstream rather than shipping 32-bit tools for zImage.

This patch avoids the build error:

        [...]
          LD      vmlinux
          SYSMAP  System.map
        [...]
          WRAP    arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries
        ld: unrecognised emulation mode: elf32ppc
        Supported emulations: elf64lppc elf32lppc elf32lppclinux elf32lppcsim
        make[6]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries] Error 1
        make[5]: *** [zImage] Error 2
