platform/x86/intel/ifs: Disable irq during one load stage

Browse source 
One of the stages in IFS image loading process involves loading individual
chunks (test patterns) from test image file to secure memory.

Driver issues a WRMSR(MSR_AUTHENTICATE_AND_COPY_CHUNK) operation to do
this. This operation can take up to 5 msec, and if an interrupt occurs
in between, the AUTH_AND_COPY_CHUNK u-code implementation aborts the
operation.

Interrupt sources such as NMI or SMI are handled by retrying. Regular
interrupts may occur frequently enough to prevent this operation from ever
completing. Disable irq on local cpu around the aforementioned WRMSR to
allow the operation to complete.
