Subject: [PATCH RESEND] x86/devicetree: Add support for boot time interrupt mode config

Presently, init/boot time interrupt delivery mode is enumerated only
for ACPI enabled systems by parsing MADT table or for older systems
by parsing MP table. But for OF based x86 systems, it is assumed &
fixed to legacy PIC mode.

Add support for configuration of init time interrupt delivery mode
for x86 OF based systems by introducing a new boolean property
'intel,no-imcr' for interrupt-controller node of local APIC. This
property emulates IMCRP Bit 7 of MP feature info byte 2 of MP
floating pointer structure.

Defaults to legacy PIC mode if absent. Configures it to virtual wire
compatibility mode if present.
