Code update interface for powernv platform. This provides
sysfs interface to pass new image, validate, update and
commit images.
This patch includes:

It just passes image SG list to FW. Actual flashing is done
during system reboot time.

I have kept version number to keep this list similar to what
PAPR is defined.
