[PATCH RFC 8/9] powerpc/pseries: Enable hvpipe with ibm,set-system-parameter RTAS

The partition uses “Hypervisor Pipe OS Enablement Notification”
system parameter token (value = 64) to enable / disable hvpipe in
the hypervisor. Once hvpipe is enabled, the hypervisor notifies
OS if the payload is pending for that partition from any source.
This system parameter token takes 1 byte length of data with
1 = Enable and 0 = Disable.
Enable hvpipe in the hypervisor with ibm,set-system-parameter
RTAS after registering hvpipe event source interrupt.
