MPIC was only used by Power3 which is now unsupported, so drop support

The second half I'm not sure ... XIVE is around the corner...
Cheers,
Ben.
I thought XIVE was replacing XICS? And so then we can just simply
replace all the specific XICS code such as xics_init() and
xics_smp_probe() with the relevant XIVE functions?
By "make the XICS functions generic" I meant that if there is only one
interrupt controller for pseries then we don't need to have both static
void __init pseries_xics_init_IRQ(void) and static void __init
pSeries_init_IRQ(void), etc.
