linux 5.0 and altivec

[Elimar Riesebieter]

Hi all,

I tried to compile linux 5.0 on my G4 powerbook 7447A altivec supported:

 arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c: In function ‘vr_get’:
  arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c:567:5: note: ‘vrsave’ declared here
     } vrsave;
       ^~~~~~
  cc1: error: AltiVec not supported in this target
  make[5]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:277: arch/powerpc/lib/xor_vmx.o] Error 1
  make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:492: arch/powerpc/lib] Error 2
  make[3]: *** [Makefile:1046: arch/powerpc] Error

Doesn't 5.0 support altivec anymore?
