Cyril Bur 86cd6d9802 powerpc/opal: Rework the opal-async interface
Future work will add an opal_async_wait_response_interruptible()
which will call wait_event_interruptible(). This work requires extra
token state to be tracked as wait_event_interruptible() can return and
the caller could release the token before OPAL responds.

Currently token state is tracked with two bitfields which are 64 bits
big but may not need to be as OPAL informs Linux how many async tokens
there are. It also uses an array indexed by token to store response
messages for each token.

The bitfields make it difficult to add more state and also provide a
hard maximum as to how many tokens there can be - it is possible that
OPAL will inform Linux that there are more than 64 tokens.

Rather than add a bitfield to track the extra state, rework the
internals slightly.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
