powerpc: Update to new option-vector-5 format for CAS
On POWER9 the ibm,client-architecture-support (CAS) negotiation process has been updated to change how the host to guest negotiation is done for the new hash/radix mmu as well as the nest mmu, process tables and guest translation shootdown (GTSE). This is documented in the unreleased PAPR ACR "CAS option vector additions for P9". The host tells the guest which options it supports in ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support. The guest then chooses a subset of these to request in the CAS call and these are agreed to in the ibm,architecture-vec-5 property of the chosen node. Thus we read ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support and make our selection before calling CAS. We then parse the ibm,architecture-vec-5 property of the chosen node to check whether we should run as hash or radix. ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support format: index value pairs: <index, val> ... <index, val> index: Option vector 5 byte number val: Some representation of supported values Signed-off-by:Suraj Jitindar Singh <sjitindarsingh@gmail.com> Acked-by:
