sparc32, sun4d: Implemented SMP IPIs support for SUN4D machines
The sun4d does not seem to have a distingstion between soft and hard IRQs. When generating IPIs the generated IRQ looks like a hard IRQ, this patch adds a "IPI check" in the sun4d irq trap handler at a predefined IRQ number (SUN4D_IPI_IRQ). Before generating an IPI a per-cpu memory structure is modified for the "IPI check" to successfully detect a IPI request to a specific processor, the check clears the IPI work requested. All three IPIs (resched, single and cpu-mask) use the same IRQ number. The IPI IRQ should preferrably be on a separate IRQ and definitly not shared with IRQ handlers requesting IRQ with IRQF_SHARED.
