Hi,
the default cpu will be something useful "pseries-artful" which exists to 
manage backports/migrations but so far is a full copy of "pseries-2.10".

# As one might assume with that I can dump just fine:
(qemu) dump-guest-memory /root/testdump
root@cpaelzer-artful-kvm:~# ll testdump 
-r-------- 1 root root 268437440 Oct 18 13:32 testdump
# file testdump 
testdump: ELF 64-bit MSB core file 64-bit PowerPC or cisco 7500, version 1 
(SYSV), SVR4-style


While I appreciate fixing this in general and thank you for bringing it 
upstream - is there a need to pick this up faster than on the next qemu merge?
That would be likely qemu 2.11 (which contains this fix) for Ubuntu 18.04.

Setting to low and marking for 18.04 unless discussed otherwise.
