powerpc: iSeries has only 256 IRQs
The iSeries Hypervisor only allows us to specify IRQ numbers up to 255 (it has a u8 field to pass it in). This patch allows platforms to specify a maximum to the virtual IRQ numbers we will use and has iSeries set that to 255. If not set, the maximum is NR_IRQS - 1 (as before).
