PPC64LE dist-kernel support

Migration from genkernel to dist kernel which also supports POWER7 CPUs as well as 8.

In testing filesystems created with either 4k or 64k threads were able to be opened with this kernel, meaning we no longer need to include both.

Thanks to Awilfox and Maukkis for testing and insights.
