[PATCH] powerpc/85xx: Fix oops during MSI driver probe on MPC85xxMDS boards

MPC85xx chips report the wrong value in feature reporting register,
and that causes the following oops:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000c00
 Faulting instruction address: 0xc0019294
 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
 MPC8569 MDS

 [...]

This is because mpic_alloc() assigns wrong values to
mpic->isu_{size,shift,mask}, and things eventually break when
_mpic_irq_read() is trying to use them.

This patch fixes the issue by enabling MPIC_BROKEN_FRR_NIRQS quirk.
