They have long said goodbye to Power Architecture in terms of new developments. For them it's internally mostly been about ARMv8 for some years.

The announced QorIQ Layerscape family may provide pin-compatibility between PPC and ARM members but I doubt that chips with PPC and ARM main cores on the same die will come. What's already there for some years are
chips with PPC main core(s) and ARM security core from Applied Micro.
