powerpc/powernv: Enable POWER8 doorbell IPIs
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.
