Anton Blanchard a75c380c71 powerpc: Enable DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS on ppc64le 
Enable on DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS on ppc64le. It should work on
ppc64 and ppc32 but we need to do some testing first.

A somewhat reasonable testcase used to show the performance
improvement - a repeated stat of a 33 byte filename that
doesn't exist:

 #include <sys/types.h>
 #include <sys/stat.h>
 #include <unistd.h>

 #define ITERATIONS 10000000

 #define PATH "123456781234567812345678123456781"

 int main(void)
 {
 	unsigned long i;
 	struct stat buf;

 	for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++)
 		stat(PATH, &buf);

 	return 0;
 }

runs 27% faster on POWER8.
