Commit e7142bf5d231 ("arm64, mm: make randomization selected by
generic topdown mmap layout") introduced a default version of
arch_randomize_brk() provided when
CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT is selected.

powerpc could select CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT
but needs to provide its own arch_randomize_brk().

In order to allow that, define generic version of arch_randomize_brk()
as a __weak symbol.

v2: Make the generic version of it a __weak symbol instead of a messy play with CONFIG_ items.
