Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] powerpc/powernv/idle: Replace CPU features check with PVR check

As the idle framework's architecture is incomplete, hence instead of
checking for just the processor type advertised in the device tree CPU
features; check for the Processor Version Register (PVR) so that finer
granularity can be leveraged while making processor checks.

Hence, making the PVR check on the outer level function, subsequently in
the hierarchy keeping the CPU_FTR_ARCH_300 check intact as it is a
faster check to do because of static branches
