[Skiboot] [PATCH] mambo: Update P9 PVR to reflect Scale out 24 core chips

The P9 PVR bits 48:51 don't indicate a revision but instead different
configurations.  From BookIV we have:
 Bits:  Configuration
    0:  Scale out 12 cores
    1:  Scale out 24 cores
    2:  Scale up 12 cores
    3:  Scale up 24 cores

Skiboot will mostly the use "Scale out 24 core" configuration
(ie. SMT4 not SMT8) so reflect this in mambo.
