Reza Arbab a6030d7e0b spapr: Add a new level of NUMA for GPUs
NUMA nodes corresponding to GPU memory currently have the same
affinity/distance as normal memory nodes. Add a third NUMA associativity
reference point enabling us to give GPU nodes more distance.

This is guest visible information, which shouldn't change under a
running guest across migration between different qemu versions, so make
the change effective only in new (pseries > 5.0) machine types.

Before, `numactl -H` output in a guest with 4 GPUs (nodes 2-5):

node distances:
node   0   1   2   3   4   5
  0:  10  40  40  40  40  40
  1:  40  10  40  40  40  40
  2:  40  40  10  40  40  40
  3:  40  40  40  10  40  40
  4:  40  40  40  40  10  40
  5:  40  40  40  40  40  10

After:

node distances:
node   0   1   2   3   4   5
  0:  10  40  80  80  80  80
  1:  40  10  80  80  80  80
  2:  80  80  10  80  80  80
  3:  80  80  80  10  80  80
  4:  80  80  80  80  10  80
  5:  80  80  80  80  80  10

These are the same distances as on the host, mirroring the change made
to host firmware in skiboot commit f845a648b8cb ("numa/associativity:
Add a new level of NUMA for GPU's").
