Introduction of core based CPU hotplug for PowerPC sPAPR didn't
add support for 970 and POWER5+ based core types. Add support for
the same.

TODO:
- There are few other variants of 970, like 970fx etc for which I have not
  added core types since I am not sure if they fall under sPAPR category.
- Is it time to add core type for POWER8NVL yet ?

Applied to ppc-for-2.7

Yeah, frankly I wouldn't really trust the spapr code with anything
except POWER7 or POWER8.

Yes.

At least the 970MP was used in IBM's JS21 blade server which was also a
sPAPR based system, so you might at least want to add that CPU, too.

If I get https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC_970#PowerPC_970FX right,
the 970FX has only been used in Apple computers, so it's likely not
needed to add support for these FX CPUs.
