Can you use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PPC64_ELF_ABI_V2) instead ?
I tried when implementing it, but the `(u64) func` cast is an issue. I
could side step it and use `unsigned long` if that's preferable?
Otherwise I like being explicit about the size, it's a delicate
function.
It is always better to have code that builds independant of config 
options. I helps with build converage, you don't have to build thousands 
of defconfigs in order to cover all options.

See 
https://docs.kernel.org/process/coding-style.html#conditional-compilation

For me, using "unsigned long" is more explicit than u64 when it 
represents the value of a pointer.
