It must be pHyp, I do not see any other options.

I have no idea how to document this. No specification tells what the naming
should be so anything I write there is just my assumption.
"This defines the cpu node name as PowerPC,POWER7+ to stay in sync with the
Sapphire host-side firmware"?

The PPC-related patches I post are always made against Alex Graf "ppc-next"
tree and his tree contains VSX fixes. Since my patch simply copies POWER7
family, I do not see much sense in mentioning all the CPU features it
enables for the new family.
