This makes it compile on PPC, but highlights the difference between
'cur_cpu_spec' on ppc32 and ppc64. Why is 'cur_cpu_spec' an array on
ppc32? Isn't 'cur' supposed to imply 'current'?

I can only guess to handle an SMP case with two different revs of the same processor that might have slightly different errata.
