powerpc/opal-irqchip: Fix deadlock introduced by "Fix double endian conversion"
Commit 25642e1459ac ("powerpc/opal-irqchip: Fix double endian
conversion") fixed an endian bug by calling opal_handle_events() in
opal_event_unmask().
However this introduced a deadlock if we find an event is active
during unmasking and call opal_handle_events() again. The bad call
sequence is:
opal_interrupt()
-> opal_handle_events()
-> generic_handle_irq()
-> handle_level_irq()
-> raw_spin_lock(&desc->lock)
handle_irq_event(desc)
unmask_irq(desc)
-> opal_event_unmask()
-> opal_handle_events()
-> generic_handle_irq()
-> handle_level_irq()
-> raw_spin_lock(&desc->lock) (BOOM)
When generating multiple opal events in quick succession this would lead
to the following stall warnings:

This patch corrects the problem by queuing the work if an event is
active during unmasking, which is similar to the pre-endian fix
behaviour.
