[v2,3/3] ci: add travis ci support for native ppc64le

  This change follows the example of aarch64 Travis support
by adding support for ppc64le gcc builds.  Limitations for
ppc64le are the same as aarch64 as described in commit
31bb45bcfd.

kmods are already disabled by default.

Why testing without EXTRA_PACKAGES?

checkpatch did not catch it because of the \n (?).
When referring to other commits, please use the format 'commit <12+

I can see no clang compilation.
Is it unsupported? forgotten? unwanted?

Copy/pasting this part is useless.
The addons: global node would make all jobs use this required_packages
as a default.
I have a patch cleaning this for arm.

I see your cleanup patch now.  I will refactor the ppc support on top 
and let you know if I have issues.

Thanks for the review.
