    powernv: CPU compatibility modes don't make sense for powernv
    
    powernv has some code (derived from the spapr equivalent) used in device
    tree generation which depends on the CPU's compatibility mode / logical
    PVR.  However, compatibility modes don't make sense on powernv - at least
    not as a property controlled by the host - because the guest in powernv
    has full hypervisor level access to the virtual system, and so owns the
    PCR (Processor Compatibility Register) which implements compatiblity modes.
    
    Note: the new logic doesn't take into account kvmppc_smt_threads() like the
    old version did.  However, if core->nr_threads exceeds kvmppc_smt_threads()
    then things will already be broken and clamping the value in the device
    tree isn't going to save us.
