This property has been deprecated since QEMU 5.0 by commit 22062e54bb68. We only kept a legacy hack that internally converts "compat" into the official "max-cpu-compat" property of the pseries machine type.
According to our deprecation policy, we could have removed it for QEMU 5.2 already. Do it now ; since ppc_cpu_parse_featurestr() now just calls the generic parent_parse_features handler, drop it as well.
Users are supposed to use the "max-cpu-compat" property of the pseries machine type instead.
