[PATCH] powerpc: use local var instead of local_paca->irq_happened directly in __check_irq_replay

Hi Wang !

Does this patch fixes it for you ?

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] powerpc/irq: Fix bug with new lazy IRQ handling code

We had a case where we could turn on hard interrupts while
leaving the PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS bit set in the PACA. This can
in turn cause a BUG_ON() to hit in __check_irq_replay() due
to interrupt state getting out of sync.

The assembly code was also way too convoluted. Instead, we
now leave it to the C code to do the right thing which ends
up being smaller and more readable.
