The GIC register accesses today make use of readl()/writel()
which prove to be very expensive when used along with mandatory
barriers. This mandatory barriers also introduces an un-necessary
and expensive l2x0_sync() operation. On Cortex-A9 MP cores, GIC
IO accesses from CPU are direct and doesn't go through L2X0 write
buffer.
A DSB before writel_relaxed() in gic_raise_softirq() is added to be
compliant with the Barrier Litmus document - the mailbox scenario.

Currently, the gic uses handle_level_irq for handling SPIs (Shared
Peripheral Interrupts), requiring active interrupts to be masked at
the distributor level during IRQ handling.
On a virtualised system, only the CPU interfaces are virtualised in
hardware. Accesses to the distributor must be trapped by the
hypervisor, adding latency to the critical interrupt path in Linux.
This patch modifies the GIC code to use handle_fasteoi_irq for handling
interrupts, which only requires us to signal EOI to the CPU interface
when handling is complete. Cascaded IRQ handling is also updated to use
the chained IRQ enter/exit functions to honour the flow control of the
parent chip.
Note that commit 846afbd1 ("GIC: Dont disable INT in ack callback")
broke cascading interrupts by forgetting to add IRQ masking. This is
no longer an issue because the unmask call is now unnecessary.
Tested on Versatile Express and Realview EB (1176 w/ cascaded GICs).

Few architectures combine the GIC with an external interrupt
controller. On such systems it may be necessary to update both
the GIC registers and the external controller's registers to control
IRQ behavior.
This can be addressed in couple of possible methods.
1. Export common GIC routines along with 'struct irq_chip gic_chip'
and allow architectures to have custom function by override.
2. Provide architecture specific function pointer hooks
within GIC library and leave platforms to add the necessary
code as part of these hooks.
First one might be non-intrusive but have few shortcomings like arch
needs to have there own custom gic library. Locks used should be
common since it caters to same IRQs etc. Maintenance point of view
also it leads to multiple file fixes.
The second probably is cleaner and portable. It ensures that all the
common GIC infrastructure is not touched and also provides archs to
address their specific issue.

We don't need to re-pass the base address for the CPU interfaces to the
GIC for secondary CPUs, as it will never be different from the boot CPU
- and even if it was, we'd overwrite the boot CPU's base address.

Software generated interrupts (SGI) are used for IPIs by the kernel.
While previous revisions of the GIC hardware were specified not to
implement enable bits for SGIs, more recent hardware is now permitted
to implement these bits in a per-CPU banked register.
The priority registers for the PPI and SGIs are also per-CPU banked
registers, so ensure that these are also appropriately initialized.

Masking in the ack callback fails to work with handle_percpu_irq and handle_edge_irq.
The interrupt stays disabled after the first invocation since percpu and edge irq do
not unmask an interrupt after handling it. For handle_level_irq masking in the ack
is redundant because ack is always called after mask in the mask_ack function.
Masking in the ack function is required only when __do_IRQ was used instead of flow
handlers, but using __do_IRQ has been deprecated.
Remove the masking of interrupt from the ack callback.

No need for the cascade irq function to have a "fastcall" annotation.
Fix the range checking for valid IRQ numbers - comparing the value
returned by the GIC with NR_IRQS is meaningless since we translate
the GIC irq number to a Linux IRQ number afterwards.
Check the GIC returned IRQ number is within limits first, then add
the IRQ offset, and only then compare with NR_IRQS.

* use "irq_chip" name, not "irqchip"
* providing irq_chip.name
- Show irq_chip.name in /proc/interrupts, like on x86.
This update a bit more than half of the ARM code. The irq_chip.name
