Thread handling in this driver is quite interesting. Greg has his name
in there, so we can blame everything on him ;-)
Below is my take at cleaning at least the thread-related bits up:
- full switch to kthread infrastructure
- switch semOperations to a mutex, and give it a proper name
- remove the useless hpc_poll_thread wrapper
- remove ibmphp_hpc_initvars - everything left can easily be
initialized statically
