Nope:

FW_FEATURE_PS3_POSSIBLE = FW_FEATURE_LPAR | FW_FEATURE_PS3_LV1,

...

#ifdef CONFIG_PPC_PS3
        /* Identify PS3 firmware */
        if (of_flat_dt_is_compatible(of_get_flat_dt_root(), "sony,ps3"))
                powerpc_firmware_features |= FW_FEATURE_PS3_POSSIBLE;
#endif

That would be nice, but these look fishy at least:

arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_manage.c:       if 
(!firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR))
arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_manage.c:       if 
(!firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR)) {
arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_manage.c:       if 
(!firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR))
arch/powerpc/platforms/pasemi/iommu.c:      
!firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR)) {
drivers/net/ethernet/pasemi/pasemi_mac.c:       return 
firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR);

cheers
