[3/3] ppc: Check the availability of transactional memory

KVM-PR currently does not support transactional memory, and the
implementation in TCG is just a fake. We should not announce TM
support in the ibm,pa-features property when running on such a
system, so disable it by default and only enable it if the KVM
implementation supports it (i.e. recent versions of KVM-HV).
These changes are based on some earlier work from Anton Blanchard
(thanks!).

and I gave them a try with a xenial guest and a f24 guest.

Thanks,

So, I've applied this, but I do have one concern.  KVM HV has, IIUC,
supported TM in guests since basically forever, but the
KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM tag is pretty new.  So this change will break TM for
guests on KVM HV older than the capability flag.

So, I think we want a fallback which will set cap_htm if we detect KVM
HV using the usual KVM_CAP_PPC_GET_PVINFO hack.

I think we can do that as a follow up patch, but we definitely should
implement it before 2.8 is released.
