This PR removes RTM code for PPC64. The instructions are not supported by Power10 processors.
The situation is even worse in Power9 compatibility mode on Power10. The VM detects RTM to be available, but the processor is unable to complete any transaction successfully.
The feature had so many problems and we never supported it in production.
