target/ppc/spapr: Add SPAPR_CAP_CCF_ASSIST
Introduce a new spapr_cap SPAPR_CAP_CCF_ASSIST to be used to indicate
the requirement for a hw-assisted version of the count cache flush
workaround.
The count cache flush workaround is a software workaround which can be
used to flush the count cache on context switch. Some revisions of
hardware may have a hardware accelerated flush, in which case the
software flush can be shortened. This cap is used to set the
availability of such hardware acceleration for the count cache flush
routine.
The availability of such hardware acceleration is indicated by the
H_CPU_CHAR_BCCTR_FLUSH_ASSIST flag being set in the characteristics
returned from the KVM_PPC_GET_CPU_CHAR ioctl.
