[8u] RFA for backport of 8170328: PPC64: Use andis instead of lis/and

[Gustavo Romero]

Hi,

Could the following backport be approved please?

It's a PPC64-only change and it applies cleanly.

The original author, Igor, was from Eldorado organization which has already
signed the OCA [1] accordingly.
