The second patch is far from trivial! It unneededly breaks the build on ppc hosts (during the Hard Freeze!), so that I can no longer compile-test my patch series against PowerKVM. Please revert immediately and either use a warning or a runtime abort. And please use a proper commit message indicating that it affects "tcg/ppc".
