spapr: Abort if ppc_set_compat() fails for hot-plugged CPUs
When a CPU is hot-plugged, we set its compat mode to match the boot CPU, which was either set by machine reset or by CAS. This is currently handled in the plug handler after the core got realized. Potential errors of ppc_set_compat() are propagated to the hot-plug logic. Handling errors this late in the hot-plug sequence is generally frown upon. Ideally, we should do sanity checks in a pre-plug handler and pass &error_abort to ppc_set_compat() in the plug handler. We can filter out some error cases of ppc_set_compat() by calling ppc_check_compat() at pre-plug. But ppc_set_compat() also sets the compat register in KVM, and KVM doesn't provide any API that would allow to check valid compat mode settings beforehand. However, at this point we know that the compat mode was already successfully set for the boot CPU. Since this all boils down to setting a register with the very same value that was valid for the boot CPU, it should definitely not fail for hot-plugged CPUS. Pass &error_abort to ppc_set_compat().
