We're still missing some changes:

- some files (hw/ppc/pnv.c, hw/ppc/spapr.c) use oea_read to check if an
SPR exists. This needs to be changed to something that is present in
both configs (I believe Bruno is working on this).

- The commit 6113563982 ("target/ppc: Clean up _spr_register et al")
from the ppc-for-6.1 branch missed some TCG-specific code in
gen_spr_BookE206:

$ ../configure --target-list=ppc64-softmmu --disable-tcg
