As of the 4.13 kernel, there are configuration + linker combinations
that do not need (or build) crtsavres.o for ppc64 targets. The commit
of interest is:

powerpc/64: Linker on-demand sfpr functions for modules
For final link, the powerpc64 linker generates fpr save/restore
functions on-demand, placing them in the .sfpr section. Starting with
binutils 2.25, these can be provided for non-final links with
--save-restore-funcs. Use that where possible for module links.
This saves about 200 bytes per module (~60kB) on powernv defconfig
build.

As such, our arch test for crtsavres.o is not enough, we add a secondary
existence check before trying the copy.
