powerpc/4xx: Remove MSI support which never worked
This code is broken since day one. ppc4xx_setup_msi_irqs() has the following gems: 1) The handling of the result of msi_bitmap_alloc_hwirqs() is completely broken: When the result is greater than or equal 0 (bitmap allocation successful) then the loop terminates and the function returns 0 (success) despite not having installed an interrupt. When the result is less than 0 (bitmap allocation fails), it prints an error message and continues to "work" with that error code which would eventually end up in the MSI message data. 2) On every invocation the file global pp4xx_msi::msi_virqs bitmap is allocated thereby leaking the previous one. IOW, this has never worked and for more than 10 years nobody cared. Remove the gunk.
