[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.13 02/10] spapr: Remove support for PowerPC 970 with pseries machine type

[David Gibson]

Current POWER cpus allow for a VRMA, a special mapping which describes a
guest's view of memory when in real mode (MMU off, from the guest's point
of view).  Older cpus didn't have that which meant that to support a guest
a special host-contiguous region of memory was needed to give the guest its
Real Mode Area (RMA).

This was useful in the early days of KVM on Power to allow it to be tested
on PowerPC 970 chips as used in Macintosh G5 machines.  Now, however, those
machines are so old as to be irrelevant, and the host kernel has long since
dropped support for this mode.  It hasn't been tested in ages either.

So, to simplify the code, drop the support from qemu as well.

As well as the code for handling contiguous RMAs, we can remove some
code to set the HIOR register, which existed on 970 but not on the
current and supported CPUs.
