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.
