Michael Ellerman bcf21e3a97 powerpc/vio: Use device_type to detect family
Currently in the vio.c code we use a comparision against the parent
device node's full path to decide if the device is a PFO or VIO family
device.

Both the ibm,platform-facilities and vdevice nodes are defined by PAPR,
and must have a matching device_type. So instead of using the path we
can instead compare the device_type.

I've checked Qemu and kvmtool both do this correctly, and all the
PowerVM systems I have access to do also. So it seems to be safe.

This removes the dependency on full_name, which is being removed
upstream.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
