[POWERPC] pasemi: Implement MSI support
Implement MSI support for PA Semi PWRficient platforms. MSI is done
through a special range of sources on the openpic controller, and they're
unfortunately breaking the usual concepts of how sources are programmed:
* The source is calculated as 512 + the value written into the MSI
register
* The vector for this source is added to the source and reported
through IACK
This means that for simplicity, it makes much more sense to just set the
vector to 0 for the source, since that's really the vector we expect to
see from IACK.
Also, the affinity/priority registers will affect 16 sources at a
time. To avoid most (simple) users from being limited by this, allocate
16 sources per device but use only one. This means that there's a total
of 32 sources.
If we get usage scenarions that need more sources, the allocator should
probably be revised to take an alignment argument and size, not just do
natural alignment.
Finally, since I'm already touching the MPIC names on pasemi, rename
the base one from the somewhat odd " PAS-OPIC " to "PASEMI-OPIC".
