RFR (XS): 8237008: Exclude serviceability/sa/TestInstanceKlassSizeForInterface.java on linuxppc64 and linuxppc64le

[Ioi Lam]

This test passed on linux/x64 on my machine, but failed on our linux/x64 
CI as well. I think there's a fundamental bug that's triggered only by 
certain CPU and/or environment combinations. So this test should be 
excluded on all platforms for now until the fundamental issue is fixed.

Thanks
- Ioi
