raid6/ppc: Fix build for clang

commit e213574a449f7a57d4202c1869bbc7680b6b5521 upstream.

We cannot build these files with clang as it does not allow altivec
instructions in assembly when -msoft-float is passed.

This is a workaround until the issue is resolved in clang.

[nc: Use 'ifeq ($(cc-name),clang)' instead of 'ifdef CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG'
     because that config does not exist in 4.14; the Kconfig rewrite
     that added that config happened in 4.18]
