[PATCH v7 7/8] KVM: selftests: Only warn for idle-page checks on powerpc pseries LPAR

["Ritesh Harjani (IBM)" <ritesh.list@gmail.com>]

Same nested TLB/access bit issue like x86. PowerPC nested KVM (pSeries
LPAR) can hide accessed/idle, since KVM (L1) doesn't explicitly flush
the TLB for access bit update, so L0 keeps translations cached. That
also means that the L2 accesses do not refault and L1 thinks that the
pages for L2 memory are still idle.

Use kvm_is_ppc_pseries_lpar() check to detect when running nested on
powerpc pseries LPAR and only warn on the idle-page count.
