The Processor Identification Register (PIR) on powerpc provides
information to decode the processor identification tag. Decoding
this information platform specfic.
Export PIR data via sysfs.
(Powerpc manuals state this register is 'optional'. I am not sure
though if there are any Linux supported powerpc platforms that
don't have it. Code in the kernel referencing PIR isn't under
a platform ifdef).
