Subject: [PATCH 0/4] powerpc: Fix minor build issues on 2.6.32-rc7 without CONFIG_XICS set

KConfig doesn't require CONFIG_XICS to be set with CONFIG_PSERIES but if
it's not set, there are numerous small build errors. This is a small series
of patches to allow CONFIG_XICS to be unset in the config.

XICS appears to be some sort of interrupt controller but I'm not sure how
common it is on systems that require CONFIG_PSERIES. If CONFIG_PSERIES
universally requires CONFIG_XICS, the better path might be to force it to
be set.

Testing was building with make oldconfig a configuration from 2.6.31 on
a PPC970.
