[PATCH v4 12/12] arm64: acpi: Make apei_claim_sea() synchronise with APEI's irq work

APEI is unable to do all of its error handling work in nmi-context, so
it defers non-fatal work onto the irq_work queue. arch_irq_work_raise()
sends an IPI to the calling cpu, but we can't guarantee this will be
taken before we return.
Unless we interrupted a context with irqs-masked, we can call
irq_work_run() to do the work now. Otherwise return -EINPROGRESS to
indicate ghes_notify_sea() found some work to do, but it hasn't
finished yet.
With this we can take apei_claim_sea() returning '0' to mean this
external-abort was also notification of a firmware-first RAS error,
and that APEI has processed the CPER records.

Changes since v2:
* Removed IS_ENABLED() check, done by the caller unless we have a dummy
definition.
