[Qemu-ppc] [PATCH] ppc64: fix compressed dump with pseries kernel

[Laurent Vivier]

If we don't provide the page size in target-ppc:cpu_get_dump_info(),
the default one (TARGET_PAGE_SIZE, 4KB) is used to create
the compressed dump. It works fine with Macintosh, but not with
pseries as the kernel default page size is 64KB.

Without this patch, if we generate a compressed dump in the QEMU monitor:

    (qemu) dump-guest-memory -z qemu.dump

This dump cannot be read by crash:

    # crash vmlinux qemu.dump
    ...
    WARNING: cannot translate vmemmap kernel virtual addresses:
             commands requiring page structure contents will fail
    ...
