O-Subject: [RHEL-8.0 qemu-kvm PATCH] RHEL-8.0: Add pseries-rhel7.6.0-sxxm machine type
Bugzilla: 1595501

For the pseries-rhel7.3.0 .. pseries-rhel7.5.0 machine types we have -sxxm
variants, the only difference being that the -sxxm variants have the
Spectre and Meltdown mitigations available to guests by default.

We'd delayed on adding a similar variant for RHEL 7.6, in the hope that we
might be able to enable the mitigations by default for the ordinary 7.6
machine type.  This requires that updated POWER8 firmware (FW860.51 or
newer) be installed on the host.

The updated firmware was only released late May, and it's not clear how
quickly and widely it will be deployed.  For that reason, plus for
consistency in how things need to be configured across rhel-7.y, we're now
adding a pseries-rhel7.6.0-sxxm machine type.
