> 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.
Martin Doerr has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision:
Remove RTM from feature string. Otherwise, tests complain about it.
