powerpc/opal: Add opal_async_wait_response_interruptible() to opal-async
This patch adds an _interruptible version of opal_async_wait_response(). This is useful when a long running OPAL call is performed on behalf of a userspace thread, for example, the opal_flash_{read,write,erase} functions performed by the powernv-flash MTD driver. It is foreseeable that these functions would take upwards of two minutes causing the wait_event() to block long enough to cause hung task warnings. Furthermore, wait_event_interruptible() is preferable as otherwise there is no way for signals to stop the process which is going to be confusing in userspace.
