Reza Arbab 26b78c81e8 powerpc: Enable the DAWR on POWER9 DD2.3 and above
The hardware bug in POWER9 preventing use of the DAWR was fixed in
DD2.3. Set the CPU_FTR_DAWR feature bit on these newer systems to start
using it again, and update the documentation accordingly.

The CPU features for DD2.3 are currently determined by "DD2.2 or later"
logic. In adding DD2.3 as a discrete case for the first time here, I'm
carrying the quirks of DD2.2 forward to keep all behavior outside of
this DAWR change the same. This leaves the assessment and potential
removal of those quirks on DD2.3 for later.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
