BZ:     https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1525866
BREW:   https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=14815605
        s390x build is broken (binutils is missing), build only the others
Tested: I tested this patch with upstream QEMU.
        As it is difficult to have a P9 host in beaker to check migration
        to P8 host, I didn't re-test it with downstream build
        (but I have asked QE to do)

if KVM is enabled and KVM capabilities MMU radix is available,
the partition table entry (patb_entry) for the radix mode is
initialized by default in ppc_spapr_reset().

It's a problem if we want to migrate the guest to a POWER8 host
while the kernel is not started to set the value to the one
expected for a POWER8 CPU.

The "-machine max-cpu-compat=power8" should allow to migrate
a POWER9 KVM host to a POWER8 KVM host, but because patb_entry
is set, the destination QEMU tries to enable radix mode on the
POWER8 host. This fails and cancels the migration:

    Process table config unsupported by the host
    error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device 'spapr'
    load of migration failed: Invalid argument

This patch doesn't set the PATB entry if the user provides
a CPU compatibility mode that doesn't support radix mode.
