[Bug 1617081] [NEW] Cannot get hugepages on PPC64

 

Public bug reported:

We cannot spawn VMs with hugepages on PPC64, for example with the IBM P8 systems.
The analysis shows that it is due to
  virt/libvirt/driver.py
     _has_hugepage_support()

which has only:
   supported_archs = [arch.I686, arch.X86_64]

 arch.PPC64LE is missing here.
