While tinkering with the new kvm-unit-tests framework for Power, I discovered that a couple of SPRs are destroyed during migration. We've got to define them in QEMU and make sure that they are synchronized with the kernel to make sure that the register contents are not lost. The first patch introduces the new PSPB register from POWER8, second patcch fixes the definition of the TAR register, and the third patch (which has been taken from Ben's "Add native POWER8 platform" patch series) introduces some missing performance monitor registers.
