powerpc/powernv: replace the hard coded boundary with gate
At the moment 64bit-prefetchable window can be maximum 64GB, which is currently got from device tree. This means that in shared mode the maximum supported VF BAR size is 64GB/256=256MB. While this size could exhaust the whole 64bit-prefetchable window. This is a design decision to set a boundary to 64MB of the VF BAR size. Since VF BAR size with 64MB would occupy a quarter of the 64bit-prefetchable window, this is affordable. This patch replaces magic limit of 64MB with "gate", which is 1/4 of the M64 Segment Size(m64_segsize >> 2) and adds comment to explain the reason for it.
