[PATCH 06/12] powerpc/xive: Native exploitation of the XIVE interrupt controller

2017-03-20 Thread Benjamin Herrenschmidt
The XIVE interrupt controller is the new interrupt controller found in POWER9. It supports advanced virtualization capabilities among other things. Currently we use a set of firmware calls that simulate the old "XICS" interrupt controller but this is fairly inefficient. This adds the framework
