Ofast enables possibly unsafe optimizations in addition to O3. This appears to have been added and then just continually copied into later Power architectures, and it wasn't included in the CMake build system when that was introduced.
Replace this with O3 so that the same level of optimization is done by the compiler.
I brought this up in #5320, and this is a PR implementing the removal of Ofast as discussed there.
