powerpc: Handle simultaneous interrupts at once
It often happens to have simultaneous interrupts, for instance when having double Ethernet attachment. With the current implementation, we suffer the cost of kernel entry/exit for each interrupt. This patch introduces a loop in __do_irq() to handle all interrupts at once before returning.
