powerpc/64: Fix booting large kernels with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
With STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled anything marked __init is placed at a 16M boundary. This is necessary so that it can be repurposed later with different permissions. However, in kernels with text larger than 16M, this pushes early_setup past 32M, incapable of being reached by the branch instruction. Fix this by setting the CTR and branching there instead.
