spapr: Adjust placement of PCI host bridge to allow > 1TiB RAM
Currently the default PCI host bridge for the 'pseries' machine type is constructed with its IO windows in the 1TiB..(1TiB + 64GiB) range in guest memory space. This means that if > 1TiB of guest RAM is specified, the RAM will collide with the PCI IO windows, causing serious problems. Problems won't be obvious until guest RAM goes a bit beyond 1TiB, because there's a little unused space at the bottom of the area reserved for PCI, but essentially this means that > 1TiB of RAM has never worked with the pseries machine type. This patch fixes this by altering the placement of PHBs on large-RAM VMs. Instead of always placing the first PHB at 1TiB, it is placed at the next 1 TiB boundary after the maximum RAM address. Technically, this changes behaviour in a migration-breaking way for existing machines with > 1TiB maximum memory, but since having > 1 TiB memory was broken anyway, this seems like a reasonable trade-off.
