On PowerNV platform, EEH errors are reported by IO accessors or poller
driven by interrupt. After the PE is isolated, we won't produce EEH
event for the PE. The current implementation has possibility of EEH
event lost in this way:
The interrupt handler queues one "special" event, which drives the poller.
EEH thread doesn't pick the special event yet. IO accessors kicks in, the
frozen PE is marked as "isolated" and EEH event is queued to the list.
EEH thread runs because of special event and purge all existing EEH events.
However, we never produce an other EEH event for the frozen PE. Eventually,
the PE is marked as "isolated" and we don't have EEH event to recover it.
The patch fixes the issue to keep EEH events for PEs that have been
marked as "isolated" with the help of additional "force" help to
eeh_remove_event().

This clarifies in the log whether the error is a global PHB error
or an individual PE being frozen.

To replace down() with down_interrutible() to avoid following
warning:

This also avoids keeping the load average up while doing nothing.

On PowerNV platform, we might run into the situation where subsequent
events are duplicated events of former one, which is being processed.
For the case, we need the function implemented by the patch to purge
EEH events accordingly.

We possiblly have multiple kthreads running for multiple EEH errors
(events) and use one spinlock to make the process of handling those
EEH events serialized. That's unnecessary and the patch creates only
one kthread, which is started during EEH core initialization time in
eeh_init(). A new semaphore introduced to count the number of existing
EEH events in the queue and the kthread waiting on the semaphore.

The patch moves the common part of EEH core into arch/powerpc/kernel
directory so that we needn't PPC_PSERIES while compiling POWERNV
platform:
* Move the EEH common part into arch/powerpc/kernel
* Move the functions for PCI hotplug from pSeries platform to
arch/powerpc/kernel/pci-hotplug.c
* Move CONFIG_EEH from arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/Kconfig to
arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig
* Adjust makefile accordingly
