Subject: [PATCH] irqchip/sifive-plic: Fix maximum priority threshold value

As per the PLIC specification, maximum priority threshold value is 0x7
not 0xF. Even though it doesn't cause any error in qemu/hifive unleashed,
there may be some implementation which checks the upper bound resulting in
an illegal access.

Fixes: ccbe80bad571 (irqchip/sifive-plic: Enable/Disable external
		     interrupts upon cpu online/offline)
