This is based on initial work by Ryan Grimm with additions & cleanups by
myself.
Some notes:
- This currently needs a special modified HostBoot
- It's missing the "ibm,thread-groups" property to inform Linux about big cores
- We need to look at HMI issues, as in some cases TFAC errors get only sent to
one half but both half need to rendez-vous, so we need to "trigger" an error
in the other half as well.
The above aren't blockers, it should be possible to merge this first.
