The old GEN_HANDLER_E used PPC2_LSQ_ISA207, but the new code uses
PPC2_ISA207S . In the current QEMU CPU model set this makes no practical
difference — every CPU that sets PPC2_ISA207S also sets PPC2_LSQ_ISA207.
However, PPC2_LSQ_ISA207 is the precise flag for this feature and keeps
lqarx symmetric with its companion stqcx_ (line 5870) which correctly
continues to use PPC2_LSQ_ISA207. Please use REQUIRE_INSNS_FLAGS2(ctx,
LSQ_ISA207) for consistency and to guard against future CPU models that
may set these flags independently

All these multi-line calls can be collapsed to single lines — they are
within 80 characters respectively and fit within the 80-column limit.
The only exception is tcg_gen_st_i64(..., reserve_val2) at 85 chars,
which legitimately needs wrapping. The unnecessary line splits add
visual noise without any readability benefit.
