powerpc: Add new CPU feature: CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ
Add a new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, to be added to the 64bit powerpc chips that benefit from having dcbt and dcbz instructions used in their memory copy routines. This will be used in a subsequent patch that updates copy_4K_page(). The new bit is added to Cell, PPC970 and Power4 because they show better performance with the new copy_4K_page() when dcbt and dcbz instructions are used.
