The IRQ core calls the irq_domain .activate callback from __setup_irq()
with desc->lock held and interrupts disabled. Both
aspeed_intc1_irq_domain_activate() and the aspeed_intc0_resolve_route()
it invokes test a compatible string with fwnode_device_is_compatible(),
which wraps fwnode_property_match_string() and allocates with GFP_KERNEL.
Besides sleeping in atomic context, that makes the irq_desc lock depend
on fs_reclaim, which lockdep reports as an inversion because
irq_desc_lock_class is also taken in hardirq context:
WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected
swapper/0/0 just changed the state of lock:
(&irq_desc_lock_class){-...}-{2:2}, at: handle_level_irq+0x28/0x168
but this lock took another, HARDIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
(fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}
...
fs_reclaim_acquire
__kmalloc_noprof
fwnode_property_match_string
aspeed_intc0_resolve_route
aspeed_intc1_irq_domain_activate
Both call sites are only ever handed OF nodes, so use
of_device_is_compatible() instead: it walks the property in place and
does not allocate.

Tested on an AST2700 EVB with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y: the irq lock
inversion splat quoted in the patch is gone, and the ast2700-intc0 KUnit
suite still passes 9/9.
