This patch series reworks the HMI handling and introduces new opal call
for hmi handling that returns info about which timer facilities were
fixed/lost e.g. TB re-synced, HDEC lost etc..

Patch 1 and 2 are minor improvements.
Patch 3 introduces new opal call opal_handle_hmi2
Patch 4 and 5 are again minor improvements and code movement.
Patch 6 does the major code rework and introduces 4 rendez vous points where
all threads synchronizes before clearing dirty data or errors at each step.
Patch 7 to 14 are incremental improvement patches that handles specific
cases for different set of HMIs.

TODO:
- Add documentation under doc/opal-api for opal_handle_hmi2 call.
