Commit 579aee9fc594 ("powerpc: suppress some linker warnings in recent linker versions")
enabled support to add linker option "--no-warn-rwx-segments",
if the version is greater than 2.39. Similar build warning were
reported recently from linker version 2.35.2.

ld: warning: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.epapr has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
ld: warning: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions

Fix the warning by checking for "--no-warn-rwx-segments"
option support in linker to enable it, instead of checking
for the version range.
