powerpc: Add driver for Barrier Synchronization Register
Adds a character driver for BSR support on IBM POWER systems including Power5 and Power6. The BSR is an optional processor facility not currently implemented by any other processors. It's primary purpose is fast large SMP synchronization. More details on the BSR are in comments to the code which follows. This patch adds BSR driver to pseries_defconfig.
