Michael Neuling [off-list ref] writes:
Bits 48:51 in the PVR for POWER9 represent different chip types (scale
up vs out and 12 vs 24 core). Current chips have 0 here, but could be
non-zero in the future.
This changes the POWER9 DD1 mask to correctly ignore these bits 48:51.

Presumably we should backport this?
cheers
