[IA64] allow user to force_pal_cache_flush
The sequence executed in check_sal_cache_flush: - pend a timer interrupt - call SAL_CACHE_FLUSH - see if interrupt is still pending can hang HP machines with buggy SAL_CACHE_FLUSH implementations. Provide a kernel command-line argument to allow users skip this check if desired. Using this parameter will force ia64_sal_cache_flush to call ia64_pal_cache_flush() instead of SAL_CACHE_FLUSH.
