Commit 5017b4594672 ("powerpc/64: Option to build big-endian with ELFv2 ABI") restricted the ELFv2 ABI configuration such that it can only be selected when linking with ld.bfd, due to lack of testing with LLVM. ld.lld can link ELFv2 kernels without any issues; in fact, it is the only ABI that ld.lld supports, as ELFv1 is not supported in ld.lld. As this has not seen a ton of real world testing yet, be conservative and only allow this option to be selected with the latest stable release of LLVM (15.x) and newer. While in the area, remove 'default n', as it is unnecessary to specify it explicitly since all boolean/tristate configuration symbols default to n.
