Section Number and Name: OpenShift on Power (ppc64le)

Describe the issue: Some components of openshift can't function because images for power can't / have not yet been built. These images include: 

    efs-provisioner
    jenkins-slave-maven-rhel7
    jenkins-slave-nodejs-rhel7
    logging-auth-proxy
    metrics-cassandra
    metrics-hawkular-metrics
    metrics-schema-installer

Because of this the following features don't / can't be expected to work with OCP on Power. 

    EFS Storage
    - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.10/install_config/provisioners.html#deploying-the-aws-efs-provisioner 

    Jenkins Slaves/Agents
    - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.10/using_images/other_images/jenkins.html#configuring-the-jenkins-kubernetes-plug-in
    - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.10/using_images/other_images/jenkins_slaves.html 

    Logging - (can't log into kabana)
    - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.10/install_config/aggregate_logging.html 

    (Hawkular) Metrics
    - https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.10/install_config/cluster_metrics.html

Suggestions for improvement: 

Denote the lack of functionality with Power as the deployed architecture.
