I think we all are. looks good to me. Merged to master as of
caf0ff13c2543c96e1ad0d26fac1d9140c4b5ae3

(I debated if I should add in POWER7 at all, and then
went... nah... both users know it's there)

You and who else? :)

I had some more details I was chasing but got stalled on, so I figured
it was better to send something rather than make it perfect. It can
always be updated of course.

Not even me. I think it's just Alexey and Paulus now (at least until
someone repairs the FSP in the giant P7 in the lab).

Literally the entire state of the skiboot documentation.

I think it's actually just Alexey now, Paul has moved on :)
