Very nice to see how far you have come with this!

Most of the code is after 970 but does look generic enough to be usable
on other powerpc64 implementations. How specific to 970 is it really?
Maybe the files and identifiers could be renamed to ppc64?
You mentioned before that you could not get ppc32 guests to run on
Cell hosts, but how about 970 or cell guests? Are there any problems
that mean it cannot work on Power5/6/7 hosts, or was that just a
matter of your priorities and available test hardware?
