I decided to check ov_table because this is what we pass to
spapr_ovec_parse_vector() and that shouldn't be NULL.

I don't really care one way or another, but adding an error_report() is a
good idea since linux just print out the following in case of CAS failure:

WARNING: ibm,client-architecture-support call FAILED!

The point of this patch is just to avoid hitting the assertions. 0x69
is probably bullshit but it passes the g_assert() at least.
