Gou Hao 37d401c9c4 powerpc/xive: defer setting cause_ipi until IPI init succeeds
xive_smp_probe() currently assigns smp_ops->cause_ipi = xive_cause_ipi
before calling xive_init_ipis() and xive_setup_cpu_ipi().  If either
call fails, the platform probe handler returns early but cause_ipi
remains pointing to xive_cause_ipi -- which accesses per-cpu IPI data
(xc->ipi_data) that was never properly initialized, leading to
a WARN and a crash.

Move the cause_ipi assignment to after both calls succeed, so that
smp_ops->cause_ipi is only set when the IPI subsystem is fully
initialized.
