Uh.. nr_servers doesn't seem like it belongs in the base ICS type.
That really would conflict with the pnv usage where the ICS is
supposed to just represent the ICS, not the xics as a whole. If you
need nr_servers information here, it seems like pulling it via a
method in XICSFabric would make more sense.

That could go in the derived type. We already kind of conflate ICS
and XICS-as-a-whole for the PAPR subtype, and the KVM xics is PAPR
only anyway.
