It turns out that if userspace creates a pseries-type VM without
in-kernel XICS (interrupt controller) emulation, and then connects
an eventfd to the VM as an irqfd, and the eventfd gets signalled,
that the code will try to deliver an interrupt via the non-existent
XICS object and crash the host kernel with a NULL pointer dereference.

To fix this, we check for the presence of the XICS object before
trying to deliver the interrupt, and return with an error if not.

It doesn't make sense to create irqfds for a VM that doesn't have
in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.  There is an existing
interface for architecture code to tell the irqfd code whether or
not any interrupt controller has been initialized, called
kvm_arch_intc_initialized(), so let's implement that for powerpc.
