[PATCH v2] powerpc: don't enable cpu hotplug on mpic-based pseries

Don't allow cpu hotplug on pSeries systems lacking XICS interrupt controller,
since current code is hardcoded to call xics routines.

Olof's patch searched the device-tree again, looking for an mpic.   This
code instead checks that we found an xics the first time by checking the
init function.
