irqchip: irq-eyeq5-msi: add EyeQ5 PCIe MSI controller driver

This commit adds an interrupt controller driver for the Mobileye EyeQ5 PCIe
MSI snooper, supporting up to 4 MSI vectors per port in either root complex
(PCI MSI parent) or endpoint (platform MSI parent) mode.

[Severity: High]
Should eyeq_msi_domain_alloc() in drivers/irqchip/irq-eyeq5-msi.c configure
handle_edge_irq (along with an ack/pre_redirect callback on
eyeq_msi_irq_chip) instead of handle_simple_irq?

Using handle_simple_irq here appears to cause two issues when MSI interrupts
are dispatched through eyeq_msi_isr() -> generic_handle_demux_domain_irq():

First, neither eyeq_msi_irq_chip nor the child MSI chip templates configured
via msi_lib_init_dev_msi_info() implement .irq_disable, and
IRQ_DISABLE_UNLAZY is not set. When a consumer calls disable_irq() or
disable_irq_nosync(), irq_disable() -> __irq_disable() only sets
IRQD_IRQ_DISABLED in software and leaves the vector unmasked in
GCSR_IRQMASK, relying on the flow handler to mask the hardware line if an
interrupt fires while disabled.

When an MSI arrives while disabled, eyeq_msi_isr() clears GCSR_IRQSTATUS and
dispatches to handle_simple_irq():

kernel/irq/chip.c:handle_simple_irq() {
	guard(raw_spinlock)(&desc->lock);

	if (!irq_can_handle_pm(desc))
		return;

	if (!irq_can_handle_actions(desc)) {
		if (irqd_needs_resend_when_in_progress(&desc->irq_data))
			desc->istate |= IRQS_PENDING;
		return;
	}
	...
}

Because handle_simple_irq() returns without calling mask_irq(),
eyeq_msi_mask_irq() is never invoked, GCSR_IRQMASK remains unmasked, and
subsequent MSI writes while disabled will keep raising the parent GIC
interrupt and queueing cross-CPU redirect irq_work.

Second, eyeq_msi_isr() clears GCSR_IRQSTATUS before dispatching the vector
and exits chained_irq_exit(), while the target CPU runs handle_simple_irq()
-> handle_irq_event() with IRQD_IRQ_INPROGRESS set and desc->lock released.

If another MSI for the same vector arrives on a different CPU while
IRQD_IRQ_INPROGRESS is set (for example across an affinity change or when
effective_affinity spans multiple CPUs), handle_simple_irq() checks
irq_can_handle_pm():

kernel/irq/chip.c:irq_can_handle_pm() {
	if (irqd_irq_inprogress(&d->irq_data) && d->handle_irq != handle_edge_irq)
		return false;
	...
}

Since desc->handle_irq is not handle_edge_irq and
irqd_needs_resend_when_in_progress() is not set, handle_simple_irq() returns
without marking IRQS_PENDING or looping in handle_irq_event(), dropping the
second MSI interrupt.
