Workaround for Linux PowerPC GPL-only cpu_has_feature()
Linux since 4.7 makes interface 'cpu_has_feature' to use jump labels on
powerpc if CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECKS is enabled, in this case
however the inline function references GPL-only symbol
'cpu_feature_keys'.

ZFS currently uses 'cpu_has_feature' either directly or indirectly from
several places; while it is unknown how this issue didn't break ZFS on
64-bit little-endian powerpc, it is known to break ZFS with many Linux
versions on both 32-bit and 64-bit big-endian powerpc.

Until this issue is fixed in Linux, we have to workaround it by
overriding affected inline functions without depending on
'cpu_feature_keys'.
