At this rate we're going to end up with no bits left for CPU features
way too quickly... Especially for something we only care about once at
boot time.

Wouldn't CPU_FTR_PPCAS_ARCH_V2 be a good enough test ?

Can you tell us a bit more about the real use for that feature ? I still
don't see what's the point of getting the underlying HW ID.

Cheers,
Ben.
