Subject: [ 05/89] KVM: PPC: Emulate dcbf

3.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexander Graf <agraf@...e.de>

commit d3286144c92ec876da9e30320afa875699b7e0f1 upstream.

Guests can trigger MMIO exits using dcbf. Since we don't emulate cache
incoherent MMIO, just do nothing and move on.
