[Skiboot] [PATCH 11/14] opal/hmi: Fix handling of TFMR parity/corrupt error.

From: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

While testing TFMR parity/corrupt error it has been observed that HMIs are
delivered twice for this error
- First time HMI is delivered with HMER[4,5]=1 and TFMR[60]=1.
- Second time HMI is delivered with HMER[4,5]=1 and TFMR[60]=0 with valid TB.

On second HMI we end up throwing below error message even though TB is in
valid state.

	"HMI: TB invalid without core error reported"

This patch fixes this issue by ignoring HMER[5] and checking only for
TFMR[60] before setting this_cpu()->tb_invalid to true.
