+ppc 'max' CPU model is unlike the other targets 'max' CPU model
+Description of problem:
+On most targets the 'max' CPU model is either equivalent to 'host' (for KVM) or equivalent to all available CPU features (for TCG).
+
+On PPC64, however, this is not the case. Instead the 'max' model is an alias of the old '7400_v2.9' and simply doesn't work.
+
+This is confusing. At the very least the 'max' model alias should be deleted. Ideally a proper replacement would be introduced that matches semantics on other arches.
+Steps to reproduce:
+1. qemu-system-ppc64 -cpu max
+
+should be equiv to '-cpu host' or should expose all TCG features.
