commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=11050d908dbd330e7cf5271afe8861748348554c
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

In particular:

 - Explicitly specify the CPU to be used, POWER8, which matches
   qemu_ppc64le_pseries_defconfig

 - Use hard disk emulation to access the root filesystem instead of an
   initrd.
