[11/12] spapr_events: event-scan RTAS interface

From: Tyrel Datwyler <tyreld@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

We don't actually rely on this interface to surface hotplug events, and
instead rely on the similar-but-interrupt-driven check-exception RTAS
interface used for EPOW events. However, the existence of this interface
is needed to ensure guest kernels initialize the event-reporting
interfaces which will in turn be used by userspace tools to handle these
events, so we implement this interface as a stub.

1 second? 1ms? 1 minute? :) Worth mentioning in the commit log.

As per PAPR 7.3.3.1 the rate is per minute.
