[IA64] avoid broken SAL_CACHE_FLUSH implementations

If SAL_CACHE_FLUSH drops interrupts, complain about it and fall back to
using PAL_CACHE_FLUSH instead.

This is to work around a defect in HP rx5670 firmware: when an interrupt
occurs during SAL_CACHE_FLUSH, SAL drops the interrupt but leaves it marked
"in-service", which leaves the interrupt (and others of equal or lower
priority) masked.
