[RFC PATCH v4 12/17] powerpc: method to initialize ec and vp cores

[Shrikanth Hegde]

During system init, capture the number of EC and VP cores on Shared
Processor LPARs(aka VM). (SPLPAR )

EC - Entitled Cores - Hypervisor(PowerVM) guarantees this many cores
worth of cycles.
VP - Virtual Processor Cores - Total logical cores present in the LPAR.
In SPLPAR's typically there is overcommit of vCPUs. i.e VP > EC.

These values will be used in subsequent patches to calculate number of
cores to use when there is steal time.

Note: DLPAR specific method need to call this again. Yet to be done.
