powerpc/powernv: process all OPAL event interrupts with kopald
Using irq_work for processing OPAL event interrupts is not necessary. irq_work is typically used to schedule work from NMI context, a softirq may be more appropriate. However OPAL events are not particularly performance or latency critical, so they can all be invoked by kopald. This patch removes the irq_work queueing, and instead wakes up kopald when there is an event to be processed. kopald processes interrupts individually, enabling irqs and calling cond_resched between each one to minimise latencies. Event handlers themselves should still use threaded handlers, workqueues, etc. as necessary to avoid high interrupts-off latencies within any single interrupt.
