target/ppc: Don't require private l1d cache on POWER8 for cap_ppc_safe_cache
For cap_ppc_safe_cache to be set to workaround, we require both a l1d cache flush instruction and private l1d cache. On POWER8 don't require private l1d cache. This means a guest on a POWER8 machine can make use of the cache flush workarounds.
