As done for the Arm GIC irqchips, move IPIs to
handle_percpu_devid_irq() as
handle_percpu_devid_fasteoi_ipi() isn't actually required.

Signed-off-by: Valentin Schneider <redacted>
This patch results in boot failures (silent stall) for the qemu
raspi2 emulation. Unfortunately it can not be reverted because
handle_percpu_devid_fasteoi_ipi no longer exists in next-20201214,
so I don't know if it is the only problem.
This is odd. This works just fine for me on both the RPi2 and 3
emulation, running a full Debian userspace. Could this be caused
by the version of QEMU you are using? Here's what I have:

$ qemu-system-arm --version
QEMU emulator version 5.1.0 (Debian 1:5.1+dfsg-4+b1)

Could you try the following hack and let me know if that helps?
Thanks for looking into this. It does look like I inverted the ordering of
that mailbox write vs the handling of the IPI. I don't see how the IPI
could mess with the mailbox (unless some creative use of irq_work /
smp_call), but in any case having the write in irq_ack() as you've done
below should restore said ordering.
