This enables a ibm,client-architecture-support RTAS call.
This allows older distros (such as SLES11 or RHEL6) to work on modern
POWERPC hardware (such as POWER8) in "architected" mode.
Changelog for v3 is in "spapr: Implement processor compatibility in
ibm,client-architecture-support"
and that is the only change.
Please comment. Thank you.
