powerpc/cell: Use common smp ipi actions

The cell iic interrupt controller has enough software caused interrupts
to use a unique interrupt for each of the 4 messages powerpc uses.
This means each interrupt gets its own irq action/data combination.

Use the seperate, optimized, arch common ipi action functions
registered via the helper smp_request_message_ipi instead passing the
message as action data to a single action that then demultipexes to
the required acton via a switch statement.

smp_request_message_ipi will register the action as IRQF_PER_CPU
and IRQF_DISABLED, and WARN if the allocation fails for some reason,
so no need to print on that failure.  It will return positive if
the message will not be used by the kernel, in which case we can
free the virq.

In addition to elimiating inefficient code, this also corrects the
error that a kernel built with kexec but without a debugger would
not register the ipi for kdump to notify the other cpus of a crash.

This also restores the debugger action to be static to kernel/smp.c.
