Right, we can set cpu_stable_id unconditionally here since this code path
(core realize) will be taken only for pseries-2.7 onwards. has_stable_id
will get set as part of the property we defined in SPAPR_COMPAT_2_7.

Default is off, but turning it on for 2.7 will be inherited by 2.6
and others below. Hence I have code to explicitly disable this prop
for 2.6 and below via SPAPR_COMPAT_2_6.
