This patch enables POWER8 doorbell IPIs on powernv.

Since doorbells can only IPI within a core, we test to see when we can use
doorbells and if not we fall back to XICS.  This also enables hypervisor
doorbells to wakeup us up from nap/sleep via the LPCR PECEDH bit.

Based on tests by Anton, the best case IPI latency between two threads dropped
from 894ns to 512ns.

Where does CONFIG_PPC_DOORBELL get set?

It looks like the only place you can be getting it is from CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES.
If you build a POWERNV only kernel it will get disabled, which I don't think is
what we want.

I think we should select it for POWERNV as well as PSERIES. That would mean
it's always enabled for any build of the files you touch, so you shouldn't need
the #ifdefs.

cheers

No where.

Ok, I'll add and resend.
