There might be some confusion on PowerKVM here, the pKVM support is in
tree in the libvirt driver, that's what the PowerKVM third party CI is
running against.
The new as of last week PowerVM driver in stackforge [1] (and older
PowerVC driver in stackforge [2]) are different and shouldn't be in the
hypervisor support matrix wiki or the in-tree hypervisor support table.
I can't wait for the day when there will be one power driver to rule
them all and Frodo will have to destroy it in Mount Doom to avoid confusion.
The only thing I'd say about the pKVM support in the in-tree matrix is
what it's distro support is, i.e. if I have latest Fedora ppc64 will
nova libvirt/qemu work with it? How about Ubuntu?
