These are mandatory per PAPR and available on Linux 4.3 and newer kernels. The calls in question are required to run FreeBSD guests with reasonable performance, so enable them if possible.

Applied to ppc-for-2.8, thanks.

Please CC me directly on patches if you want a faster response - I
only occasionally have time to look through the lists for things.

Actually, I discovered a bit later that this breaks the build on x86,
because there is no stub version of
kvmppc_enable_clear_ref_mod_hcalls() when (ppc) kvm is not available.

So, I've added that in my tree.
