[POWERPC] Xilinx: hwicap driver

This includes code for new fifo-based xps_hwicap in addition to the
older opb_hwicap, which has a significantly different interface.  The
common code between the two drivers is largely shared.

Significant differences exists between this driver and what is
supported in the EDK drivers.  In particular, most of the
architecture-specific code for reconfiguring individual FPGA resources
has been removed.  This functionality is likely better provided in a
user-space support library.  In addition, read and write access is
supported.  In addition, although the xps_hwicap cores support
interrupt-driver mode, this driver only supports polled operation, in
order to make the code simpler, and since the interrupt processing
overhead is likely to slow down the throughput under Linux.
