Michael Ellerman a66de5283e powerpc/pseries: Fix plpks crash on non-pseries

As reported[1] by Nathan, the recently added plpks driver will crash if
it's built into the kernel and booted on a non-pseries machine, eg
powernv:

  kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/kernel/syscall.c:39!
  Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1]
  LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Radix SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA PowerNV

  ...
  NIP plpar_hcall+0x38/0x60
  LR  pseries_plpks_init+0x64/0x23c
  --- interrupt: c00

On powernv Linux is the hypervisor, so a hypercall just ends up going to
the syscall path, which BUGs if the syscall (hypercall) didn't come from
userspace.

The fix is simply to not probe the plpks driver on non-pseries machines.
