Add stub instances of enable_kernel_vsx() and disable_kernel_vsx()
when CONFIG_VSX is not set, to avoid following build failure.

I'm wondering how this is any better than the current situation: using
BUILD_BUG() will still cause a build failure?

No it won't cause a failure. In drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/os_types.h you have:

#define DC_FP_START() { \
	if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_VSX_COMP)) { \
		preempt_disable(); \
		enable_kernel_vsx(); \
	} else if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_ALTIVEC_COMP)) { \
		preempt_disable(); \
		enable_kernel_altivec(); \
	} else if (!cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_FPU_UNAVAILABLE)) { \
		preempt_disable(); \
		enable_kernel_fp(); \
	} \

When CONFIG_VSX is not selected, cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_VSX_COMP) constant folds to 'false' so the 
call to enable_kernel_vsx() is discarded and the build succeeds.

What about adding "depends on !POWERPC || VSX" instead, to prevent
the issue from happening in the first place?

CONFIG_VSX is not required as pointed by the DC_FP_START() macro above and the matching DC_FP_END() 
macro.
