[Skiboot] [RFC 3/3] phb4/capp: Introduce 'dma-engines' capp attribute override

CAPP-APC uses PEC DMA read engines to communicate with the PSL
communicate with the PSL/XSL on the CAPI card. Presently during CAPP
init a static number of these DMA read engines are allocated to based
on the link-width of the card which is x16 => 48 Engines and x8 =>
[0-19,28-29] Engines.

However in certain circumstances it will be useful to be able to tune
this value to improve card throughput. For example in case of Mellanox
CX5 adapter (x8+ x8), we just assign 4 DMA Read Engines to CAPP
leaving other engines for native DMA. Other cards (especially multi
function fpga adapters) may need different value for DMA engines to
ensure optimal performance.

Hence this patch introduces a capp attribute override named
'dma-engines' that can be used to specify the number of DMA read
engines reserved for CAPP on the PEC. This value will then be used to
configure CAPP 'APC FSM Read Machine Mask Register' as well as PEC's
'CAPP Control Register'.

The valid values for this attribute is a bit mask in range
0x000000000000 - 0xFFFFFFFFFFFF. Each bit in the bit mask indicates a
allocation of a single DMA read engine to CAPP from pool 0-47. For
example to reserve DMA read engines range [0-19,27-29] use the mask
0xFFFFF00E0000.
