Michael,

Yes.. SIER has different value in baremetal and virtual machine
due to different MSR[HV] value.  I will correct it. Originally I only
tested in virtual BE/LE machines.

Currently all tests cases (with fix) passed on one baremetal P8 machine 
with LE OS installed.  And I will try to find another baremetal with BE 
OS installed to test.

Thanks for indicating it.

BR,
Simon
