platform/x86/intel/ifs: Remove image loading during init

IFS test image is unnecessarily loaded during driver initialization.
Drop image loading during ifs_init() and improve module load time. With
this change, user has to load one when starting the tests.

As a consequence, make ifs_sem static as it is only used within sysfs.c
