Compiling 2.4.22-pre3 for a 6xx-class PowerPC fails in cpu_setup_6xx.S:

SPRN_HID2 should be a #defined constant, but it isn't. The patch
below from 2.4.21-ben2 (rediffed for 2.4.22-pre3) fixes the problem.

Um, I have that in the for-marcelo-ppc tree already, which I hope
Marcelo will pull before pre4.
