[PATCH v5 1/2] powerpc/pseries: Remove prrn_work workqueue

When a PRRN event is received we are already running in a worker
thread. Instead of spawning off another worker thread on the prrn_work
workqueue to handle the PRRN event we can just call the PRRN handler
routine directly.
With this update we can also pass the scope variable for the PRRN
event directly to the handler instead of it being a global variable.
This patch fixes the following oops mnessage we are seeing in PRRN testing:
Oops: Bad kernel stack pointer, sig: 6 [#1]

v5:
- Update commit message to include oops message
v4:
- Remove prrn_work workqueue as suggested by Michael Ellerman
- Make the PRRN event scope passed in as opposed to a global, suggested
by Michael Ellerman
v3:
-Scrap the mutex as it only replicates existing workqueue behavior.
v2:
-Unlock prrn_lock when PRRN operations are complete, not after handler is
scheduled.
-Remove call to flush_work, the previous broken method of serializing
PRRN events.
