[PATCH 1/3] powerpc: Fixup hard_irq_disable semantics

This patch renames the raw hard_irq_{enable,disable} into
__hard_irq_{enable,disable} and introduces a higher level
hard_irq_disable() function that can be used by any code
to enforce that IRQs are fully disabled, not only lazy
disabled.

The difference with the __ versions is that it will update
some per-processor fields so that the kernel keeps track and
properly re-enables them in the next local_irq_disable();

This prepares powerpc for my next patch that introduces
hard_irq_disable() generically.
