Merge remote-tracking branch 'remotes/dgibson/tags/ppc-for-2.8-20161028' into staging

ppc patch queue 2016-10-28

This pull request supersedes and extends the one from 2016-10-26
(which had a build bug).

Highlights:
  * SLOF (pseries guest firmware) update
  * Enable a number of extra testcases on ppc / pseries
  * Added the 'powernv' machine type
    - Almost enough to be minimally usable
    - But still missing necessary interrupt controller updates
  * Cleanup and consolidation of NVRAM handling on several platforms
    with related firmware
  * Substantial cleanup to device tree construction
  * Some more POWER9 instruction emulation
  * Cleanup to handling of pseries option vectors and CAS reboot
    handling (host/guest feature negotiation mechanism)
  * Significant cleanups to handling of PCI devices in test cases
  * New hotplug event infrastructure
  * Memory hot unplug support for pseries
  * Several bug fixes

The NVRAM cleanup affects some Sun sparc platforms as well as ppc
ones, but have been tested by the sparc maintainer (Mark Cave-Ayland).

The test additions also include substantial general changes to the
test framework that aren't strictly ppc related.  They don't seem to
break tests on other platforms, they're for the benefit of enabling
tests on ppc and there isn't a specific maintainer for them, so
they're included in this tree.
