Here it is...

From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ana...@in.ibm.com>
The Processor Identification Register (PIR) on some powerpc platforms
provides information to decode the processor identification tag that
can be used for node/core/thread affinity tests and for debugging.
Decoding this information is platform specific.
Export PIR contents through sysfs.
[V2] Use CPU_FTR_PPCAS_ARCH_V2 as a test for PIR's presence per
BenH's suggestion.
