Description

powerpc/powernv: Add OPAL heartbeat thread

Summary:
OPAL needs to be kicked periodically in order for the firmware to make
progress on its tasks. To do so, create a heartbeat thread to perform this task
every N milliseconds, defined by the device tree. This task is also a central
location to handle all messages received from OPAL.
