The PowerPC 620 was the very first 64-bit PowerPC implementation, but
hardly anyone ever actually used the chips.  qemu notionally supports the
620, but since we don't actually have code to implement the segment table,
the support is broken (quite likely in other ways too).

This partch, therefore, removes all remaining pieces of 620 support, to
stop it cluttering up the platforms we actually care about.

The BeBox had a 604e iirc and so far all my PReP testing has been
32-bit. CC'ing Hervé on whether any of his 40P emulations need the 620.

The BeBox has a 603e and the IBM 40p has either a 601 or a 604. So I see no objection to remove the 620 support.

Hervé
