Greg Kurz 7abc0c6d35 xics/spapr: Detect old KVM XICS on POWER9 hosts
Older KVMs on POWER9 don't support destroying/recreating a KVM XICS
device, which is required by 'dual' interrupt controller mode. This
causes QEMU to emit a warning when the guest is rebooted and to fall
back on XICS emulation:

qemu-system-ppc64: warning: kernel_irqchip allowed but unavailable:
 Error on KVM_CREATE_DEVICE for XICS: File exists

If kernel irqchip is required, QEMU will thus exit when the guest is
first rebooted. Failing QEMU this late may be a painful experience
for the user.

Detect that and exit at machine init instead.
