powerpc: crtsaveres.o needed only when -Os flag is enabled
    
    Currently on powerpc arch, out-of-tree module fails to build without
    crtsaveres.o, even when the module has no dependency on the symbols
    provided by the file; when built without the -Os flag.
    
    BTW: '-Os' flag is enabled when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is
    configured.
    
    This patch fixes that problem.
