We don't need to look up the rtas event token once per 
cpu per second. This avoids some misc string ops and 
rtas calls and provides some minor performance improvement.

It does not avoid any calls to RTAS.  (rtas_token merely looks up
properties under the /rtas node.)

Right. I'd vaguely known but forgotten that of_get_property didn't 
actually turn into an rtas call.

Otherwise, looks okay.

Should I resubmit with modified commit message, or does anyone care?
