"This patch implements a notifier to receive a notification on OPAL
event mask changes." is probably better. No need to blurb about
enable/disable, however add something along the lines of

"The notifier is only called as a result of an OPAL interrupt, which
will happen upon reception of FSP messages or PCI errors. Any event
mask change detected as a result of opal_poll_events() will not result
in a notifier call.

With OPALv3, opal_poll_event() will not clear interrupt conditions from
the FSP however, even if it consumes the messages (and thus updates the
event mask). Thus the interrupt notifier is a reliable way to get
the completion for FSP based OPAL operations. The specific list will
be added to the header file.

Make it two functions

opal_enable_notifier() vs. opal_disable_notifier()

Don't bother with checking the list already. This is not useful. Also
it's fine for two things to listen on the same event.

My idea was to call this if the event bit has changed since the last
time we called opal_do_notifier. IE. Use a static last_notified_mask
and do something like

	changed_mask = last_notified_mask ^ events;

	list_for_each_entry(tmp, &opal_notifier, list) {
		if (changed_mask & tmp->mask)
			tmp->cb(events);

Also, always pass the whole events to the callback, no point in
filtering.

BTW, "tmp" isn't a nice name here.

As I said, two functions.
