Hi everyone!

This is the dependency tree of the patches (along with their IDs on gerrit) that will enable IBM POWER support for the oVirt engine (more patches will be submitted later):

17853 - core: Add POWER 7 to the CPU list
                16700 - core, engine, webadmin: Initial support for alternative architectures
                               18220 - core: New OS for IBM POWER support
                                               17855 - core: Architecture related queries
                                                               18226 - core, engine, webadmin: Cluster and architecture related changes
                                                                               18227 - core, webadmin, engine: Added architecture support for VM and Template
                                               17885 - webadmin: Show only supported displays
                                               17964 - core, webadmin: Show only supported disk interfaces
                                               17972 - webadmin: Show only compatible OSes
                                               18221 - core, webadmin: Show only supported watchdogs
                                               18227 - core, webadmin, engine: Added architecture support for VM and Template
18150 - engine: Display type validation
18042 - engine: Vnic interface validation

We divided the previous patchset into smaller patches with specific features, in order to enhance the review process. We avoided modifying the change #16700 too much, because the reviewers had already started giving their feedback on it.
Looking at the tree, the other patches are highly dependent on changes #17853/#16700/#1822, and the change #16700 is the largest one. If there is something to do to help the review process, please, let us know.

Regards,
Leonardo Bianconi/Vitor de Lima/Gustavo Pedrosa
