POWER hosts does not implement CPU virtualization extensions like x86 or s390x. Instead, all bare-metal POWER hosts are considered to be virtualization ready. For POWER, the validation is done by checking the virtualization kernel modules, kvm_hv and kvm_pr, to see if they are either not installed or not loaded in the host. If the KVM modules aren't present, we should not just warn but fail to validate. This patch implements this support. If kvm_hv is not installed, which can be determined by 'modinfo' returning not-zero return code, fail the verification. If kvm_hv is installed but not loaded, show a warning. The exception are POWER8 hosts, which can work with kvm_pr. In its case, ACK the use of kvm_pr if kvm_hv is not loaded/present.
