53876e387d powerpc: Lack of ibm,io-events not that important!
The ibm,io-events code is a bit verbose with its error messages.
Reverse the reporting so we only print when we successfully enable
I/O event interrupts.

77eafe101a powerpc/pseries: Add support for IO event interrupts
This patch adds support for handling IO Event interrupts which come
through at the /event-sources/ibm,io-events device tree node.

The interrupts come through ibm,io-events device tree node are generated
by the firmware to report IO events. The firmware uses the same interrupt
to report multiple types of events for multiple devices. Each device may
have its own event handler. This patch implements a plateform interrupt
handler that is triggered by the IO event interrupts come through
ibm,io-events device tree node, pull in the IO events from RTAS and call
device event handlers registered in the notifier list.

Device event handlers are expected to use atomic_notifier_chain_register()
and atomic_notifier_chain_unregister() to register/unregister their
event handler in pseries_ioei_notifier_list list with IO event interrupt.
Device event handlers are responsible to identify if the event belongs
to the device event handler. The device event handle should return NOTIFY_OK
after the event is handled if the event belongs to the device event handler,
or NOTIFY_DONE otherwise.
