Some chips (like the SoCs from Freescale) report the wrong value in NIRQ
and this causes issues if its doesn't match or exceed the value of
irq_count.

Add a flag that board code can set to just use irq_count instead of
FRR[NIRQ].  Eventually we'll add a device tree property with the number
of sources.

Screw up with git on the first version.

Hi, Kumar,

So I should  change the MSI hwirq num according to this change, The
patches
will be send after this changes updated to your tree. How about applying
the MSI=20
driver firstly?

I've asked Paul to pick up this patch for powerpc-next.  If you can rework the MSI patches with this patch applied and just change the board support for mpc85xx_ds and 8610 to set the flag.

Ok, Please find the patchset in the following mail. I'll resend the MSI
driver in this send.
