[RFC PATCH 4/9] irqchip: GIC: add support for forwarded interrupts

Hi Marc,

Now that we've switched to EOImode == 1, prevent a forwarded interrupt
from being deactivated after its priority has been dropped.

Also add support for the interrupt state to be saved/restored.

Given that this isn't atomic and KVM only cares about ACTIVE, why not change
mask to be a single state only? Renumbering the states so that's not bits
would help to enforce this (i.e. make IRQ_FWD_STATE_ACTIVE 0, PENDING 1,
...).

That would also allow you to switch on the state and return early.

+static u32 gic_irq_get_fwd_state(struct irq_data *d, u32 mask)
+{
+	u32 val = 0;
+
+	if (mask & IRQ_FWD_STATE_PENDING && gic_peek_irq(d, GIC_DIST_ENABLE_SET))
+		val |= IRQ_FWD_STATE_PENDING;
+	if (mask & IRQ_FWD_STATE_ACTIVE && gic_peek_irq(d, GIC_DIST_ACTIVE_SET))
+		val |= IRQ_FWD_STATE_ACTIVE;
+	if (mask & IRQ_FWD_STATE_MASKED && !gic_peek_irq(d, GIC_DIST_ENABLE_SET))
+		val |= IRQ_FWD_STATE_MASKED;

*and* you could peek GIC_DIST_ENABLE_SET in one place here.
