Milton Miller 1ece355b68 powerpc: Add kconfig for muxed smp ipi support
Compile the new smp ipi mux and demux code only if a platform
will make use of it.  The new config is selected as required.

The new cause_ipi smp op is only available conditionally to point out
configs where the select is required; this makes setting the op an
immediate fail instead of a deferred unresolved symbol at link.

This also creates a new config for power surge powermac upgrade support
that can be disabled in expert mode but is default on.

I also removed the depends / default y on CONFIG_XICS since it is selected
by PSERIES.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 0b05ac6e24 powerpc/xics: Rewrite XICS driver
This is a significant rework of the XICS driver, too significant to
conveniently break it up into a series of smaller patches to be honest.

The driver is moved to a more generic location to allow new platforms
to use it, and is broken up into separate ICP and ICS "backends". For
now we have the native and "hypervisor" ICP backends and one common
RTAS ICS backend.

The driver supports one ICP backend instanciation, and many ICS ones,
in order to accomodate future platforms with multiple possibly different
interrupt "sources" mechanisms.
