[patch 5/6] PS3: Fix system slowdown

[Geoff Levand]

From: Takao Shinohara <shin at sm.sony.co.jp>

The PS3 HV will deliver soft-disabled interrupts at the next HV call or
interrupt.  Add an HV call to local_irq_restore() to force the timely
delivery of any pending interrupts.

This fixes the system slowdown bug reported here
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8260

I made a request to change the behavior of the lv1 hypervisor to better
support the way we do soft-disable on Linux, but it is still not been
decided if and when that support will be done.
