[PATCH 08/12] powerpc: Annotate accesses to ipi message flags

IPI message flags are observed and consequently consumed in the
smp_ipi_demux_relaxed function, which handles these message sources
until it observes none more arriving. Mark the checked loop guard with
READ_ONCE, to signal to KCSAN that the read is known to be volatile, and
that non-determinism is expected.
