This patch fixes a problem in XPC disengage processing whereby it was not
seeing the request to disengage from a remote partition, so the disengage
wasn't happening. The disengagement is suppose to transpire during the time
a XPC channel is disconnecting, and should be completed before the channel
is declared to be disconnected.

XPC (as in arch/ia64/sn/kernel/xp*) has a need to notify other partitions
(SGI Altix) whenever a partition is going down in order to get them to
disengage from accessing the halting partition's memory. If this is not
done before the reset of the hardware, the other partitions can find
themselves encountering MCAs that bring them down.

Some of the SN code & #defines related to compact nodes & IO discovery
have gotten stale over the years. This patch attempts to clean them up.
Some of the various SN MAX_xxx #defines were also unclear & misused.
The primary changes are:
- use MAX_NUMNODES. This is the generic linux #define for the number
of nodes that are known to the generic kernel. Arrays & loops
for constructs that are 1:1 with linux-defined nodes should
use the linux #define - not an SN equivalent.
- use MAX_COMPACT_NODES for MAX_NUMNODES + NUM_TIOS. This is the
number of nodes in the SSI system. Compact nodes are a hack to
get around the IA64 architectural limit of 256 nodes. Large SGI
systems have more than 256 nodes. When we upgrade to ACPI3.0,
I _hope_ that all nodes will be real nodes that are known to
the generic kernel. That will allow us to delete the notion
of "compact nodes".
- add MAX_NUMALINK_NODES for the total number of nodes that
are in the numalink domain - all partitions.
- simplified (understandable) scan_for_ionodes()
- small amount of cleanup related to cnodes

When XPC is being shutdown (i.e., rmmod, reboot) it doesn't ensure that
other partitions with whom it was connected have completely disengaged
from any attempt at cross-partition memory references. This can lead to
MCAs in any of these other partitions when the partition is reset.
