zfs: add option to restore kernel_neon for linux 6.2 support on aarch64

Introduced in torvalds/linux@aaeca98
with the usual disdain for ZFS.

We have been there in the past with
<https://www.phoronix.com/news/NixOS-Linux-5.0-ZFS-FPU-Drop> /
NixOS#61076.

This fixes ZFS on aarch64 until the next breakage.

See openzfs/zfs#14555 for original upstream
issue.
