[8u60] Request for approval to backport: 8067330: ZERO_ARCHDEF incorrectly defined for PPC/PPC64 architectures

[Seán Coffey]

Hi Severin,

I'd missed your previous request. It was marked as a review request!
Consider this approved for jdk8u-dev. Can you add a 'noreg-build' label 
to the bug report ?

Erik, would you be willing to push this changeset to the 8u-dev forest  
? Looks like there's some closed code that needs updating also.

regards,
Sean.
