[Skiboot] [PATCH 0/2] Enable HIOMAP on P8

Hello,

I'm back again with enablement patches for hiomap on p8 systems. This time with
more testing in the loop.

The bug with bd9839684d48 ("astbmc: Try IPMI HIOMAP for P8") turned out to be
an issue with ordering of operations in ast_sio_is_enabled(), which broke
assumptions of ast-sf-ctrl (i.e. that the SuperIO controller was unlocked with
the correct device selected). Patch 1/2 reworks the test sequence to leave
SuperIO unlocked with the prior device selected if a device was selected on
entry to the test.

Patch 2/2 has not changed from bd9839684d48, aside from being tested on
Garrison, Palmetto (without and _with_ hiomap) and Witherspoon systems.

Please review, CI, test and all the other things that we can do to prove I
haven't broken booting again.

Cheers,

Andrew
