MIPS: Fix broken malta qemu
Malta defconfig compiles with GIC on. Hence when compiling for SMP it causes the new IPI code to be activated. But on qemu malta there's no GIC causing a BUG_ON(!ipidomain) to be hit in mips_smp_ipi_init(). Since in that configuration one can only run a single core SMP (!), skip IPI initialisation if we detect that this is the case. It is a sensible behaviour to introduce and should keep such possible configuration to run rather than die hard unnecessarily.
