powerpc/pseries: Tell firmware our capabilities on new machines
This adds code to call a new firmware method to tell the firmware
what machines and capabilities (such as VMX/Altivec) we support.
This will be needed on POWER5+ and POWER6 machines, and it has no
effect on past and current machines.

+ * Newer machines have an "ibm,client-architecture-support" method on the
+ * root node. For older machines, we have to call the "process-elf-header"

+ * structures that contain various information.
