[ Upstream commit f5246862f82f1e16bbf84cda4cddf287672b30fe ]

In commit 4f8b50bbbe63 ("irq_work, ppc: Fix up arch hooks") a new
function arch_irq_work_raise() was added without a prototype in header
irq_work.h.

Fix the following warning (treated as error in W=1):
  arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c:523:6: error: no previous prototype for ‘arch_irq_work_raise’

Implement arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() for powerpc

Commit 9b01f5bf3 introduced a dependency on "IRQ work self-IPIs" for
full dynamic ticks to be enabled, by expecting architectures to
implement a suitable arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() routine.

Several arches have implemented this routine, including x86 (3010279f)
and arm (09f6edd4), but powerpc was omitted.

This patch implements this routine for powerpc.

The symptom, at boot (on powerpc systems) with "nohz_full=&lt;CPU list&gt;"
is displayed:

     NO_HZ: Can't run full dynticks because arch doesn't support irq work self-IPIs

after this patch:

     NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: &lt;CPU list&gt;.

Tested against 3.19.

powerpc implements "IRQ work self-IPIs" by setting the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(), which causes a decrementer exception on the next
timebase tick. We then handle the work in __timer_interrupt().
