RFR(M) 8150353: PPC64LE: Support RTM on linux

[David Holmes]

Hi Gustavo,

Just a point of order. All contributions to the OpenJDK must be made 
through OpenJDK infrastructure. So you must either get someone to host 
your webrev on cr.openjdk.java.net, or include it inline in email 
(attachments tend to get stripped).

Sorry for the inconvenience.
