[PATCH] powerpc/pseries: Do not initiate shutdown when system is running on UPS

As per PAPR specification whenever system is running on UPS we have to
wait for predefined time (default 10mins) before initiating shutdown.

We have user space tool (rtas_errd) to monitor for EPOW events and
initiate shutdown after predefined time. Hence do not initiate shutdown
whenever we get EPOW_SHUTDOWN_ON_UPS event.

Fixes: 79872e35 (powerpc/pseries: All events of EPOW_SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN must initiate shutdown)
