The P9 PVR bits 12-15 don't indicate a revision but instead different
chip configurations. From BookIV we have:
Bits Configuration
0 : Scale out 12 cores
1 : Scale out 24 cores
2 : Scale up 12 cores
3 : Scale up 24 cores
DD1 doesn't use this but DD2 does. Linux will mostly use the "Scale
out 24 core" configuration (ie. SMT4 not SMT8) which results in a PVR
of 0x004e1200. The reported revision in /proc/cpuinfo is hence
reported incorrectly as "18.0".
This patch fixes this to mask off only the relevant bits for the major
revision (ie. bits 8-11) for POWER9.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
