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?
Actually, we need to scrap this patch.

Looks like the scale up version will be marked as DD1, but it won't need th=
ese
workarounds. So we need it to match on the other POWER9 entry.
