When using the ppce500 machine with an embedded CPU type that has
the right MMU model, but is not part of the e500 CPU family, QEMU
currently aborts ungracefully:

 $ ./qemu-system-ppc -machine ppce500 -cpu e200z5 -nographic
 qemu-system-ppc: ../qemu/hw/core/gpio.c:108: qdev_get_gpio_in_named:
  Assertion `n >= 0 && n < gpio_list->num_in' failed.
 Aborted (core dumped)

The ppce500 machine expects a CPU with certain GPIO interrupt pins,
so let's replace the coarse check for the MMU_BOOKE206 model with
a more precise check that only allows CPUs from the e500 family.
