powerpc/book3s64/hash: Disable 16M linear mapping size if not aligned

With STRICT_KERNEL_RWX on in a relocatable kernel under the hash MMU,
if the position the kernel is loaded at is not 16M aligned things go
horribly wrong. Specifically hash__mark_initmem_nx() will call
hash__change_memory_range() which then aligns down the start address,
and due to the text not being 16M aligned causes some of the kernel
text to be marked non-executable.

We can avoid this when selecting the linear mapping size, so do so and
print a warning. I tested this for various alignments and as long as
the position is 64K aligned it's fine (the base requirement for
powerpc).
