Subject[PATCH] powerpc: clean up binutils version check
Date
The checkbin in arch/powerpc/Makefile errors out if ld <= 2.24.
So, the requirement on PPC is binutils >= 2.25. It is cleaner to
specify it in scripts/min-tool-version.sh. If binutils < 2.25 is
used, the toolchain check will fail in the Kconfig stage going
forward.

Since binutils >= 2.25 is already required, another version test
for --save-restore-funcs on PPC64 is always met.

PPC is the last user of ld-ifversion. With all the callers removed,
the macro definition in scripts/Makefile.compiler can go away.
