Booting AIX in a PowerVM partition requires the use of the "Acknowledge
O/S Interrupt to even O/S reporting line" special operation provided by
the IBM XIVE interrupt controller. This operation is invoked by writing
a byte (data is irrelevant) to offset 0xC10 of the Thread Interrupt
Management Area (TIMA). It can be used by software to notify the XIVE
logic that the interrupt was received.
