opal: Fix hang in time_wait* calls on HMI for TB errors.
On TOD/TB errors timebase register stops/freezes until HMI error recovery
gets TOD/TB back into running state. However, while HMI recovery is in
progress there are chances where some code path may invoke time_wait*()
calls which depends on running TB value. In an event of TB not moving,
time_wait* calls would keep looping resulting into a hang on that CPU.
On OpenPower systems we are seeing system hang on TOD/TB errors. The hang
is seen inside OPAL HMI handler while invoking prlog/perror(). The reason
is, on OpenPower systems prlog/perror() depends on LPC UART console
driver to flush log messages to the console. UART read/write calls invoke
time_wait_nopoll() inside opb_[read|write]() functions. When TB is in
stopped state this causes a hang in prlog/perror() calls.
This patch fixes this issue by modifying time_wait_[no]poll() to check
for TB validity and return immediately.
