The TOPEI read-and-clear must be atomic with respect to
interrupt injection (set_bit in EIP). Otherwise an
interrupt injected between the topei read and the
clear_bit could be silently dropped.

v4:
- pass topei value to __imsic_swfile_extirq_update()
v3:
- fix undefined eflags
v2:
- fix patch file curruption
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm-riscv/20260923070332.1376132-1-xiangwencheng@lanxincomputing.com/
