[POWERPC] Fix -Os kernel builds with newer gcc versions

GCC 4.4.x looks to be adding support for generating out-of-line register
saves/restores based on:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-04/msg01678.html

This breaks the kernel if we enable CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.  To fix
this we add the use the save/restore code from gcc and simplified it down
for our needs (integer only).

Additionally, we have to link this code into each module.  The other
solution was to add EXPORT_SYMBOL() which meant going through the
trampoline which seemed nonsensical for these out-of-line routines.

Finally, we add some checks to prom_init_check.sh to ignore the
out-of-line save/restore functions.
