[PATCH v4 23/26] RFC: KVM: powerpc: Move processor compatibility check to hardware setup

From: Isaku Yamahata <isaku.yamahata at intel.com>
Move processor compatibility check from kvm_arch_processor_compat() into
kvm_arch_hardware_setup(). The check does model name comparison with a
global variable, cur_cpu_spec. There is no point to check it at run time
on all processors.
