powerpc: align syscall table for ppc32
Christophe Leroy reported that commit 7b45371 ("kbuild: link
symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") broke
mpc85xx_defconfig + CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

The compiler emits a bunch of R_PPC_UADDR32, which is not supported by
arch/powerpc/kernel/reloc_32.S.
The reason is there exists an unaligned symbol.

Commit 7b45371 is not the root cause. Even before that, I can
reproduce the same issue for mpc85xx_defconfig + CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
+ CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=n.
It is just that nobody noticed because when CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is
enabled, a __crc_* symbol inserted before sys_call_table was hiding the
unalignment issue.
Adding alignment to the syscall table for ppc32 fixes the issue.
