[Zesty][PATCH v4 00/13] POWER9 XIVE: msgsnd/doorbell IPI support(backport)

[Gustavo Walbon]

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691973

The backport was requested for 16.04.3 HWE to be enabled the XIVE 
feature on the POWER9 systems.

The tests were done using the Sysbench for CPU,fileIO and Threads tests, 
and the FIO tester to write directly on disk without buffering. All
 tests were performed in order to stress the machine using its 32 
threads of CPUs for 12 hr.

The commits below were cherry-pick to enable XIVE features.

The fixing from Michael Ellerman which it solved the kernel 
crash while the starting boot of the machine.

Changelog:
v3: Fixes wrong links for the launchpad and commit references to linus
 tree, thanks Seth.
v4: Fixes wrong references and cover letter message, thanks Mauricio.
