Now that entry code handles IRQ entry (including setting the IRQ regs)
before calling irqchip code, irqchip code can safely call
generic_handle_domain_irq(), and there's no functional reason for it to
call handle_domain_irq().

Let's cement this split of responsibility and remove handle_domain_irq()
entirely, updating irqchip drivers to call generic_handle_domain_irq().

For consistency, handle_domain_nmi() is similarly removed and replaced
with a generic_handle_domain_nmi() function which also does not perform
any entry logic.

Previously handle_domain_{irq,nmi}() had a WARN_ON() which would fire
when they were called in an inappropriate context. So that we can
identify similar issues going forward, similar WARN_ON_ONCE() logic is
added to the generic_handle_*() functions, and comments are updated for
clarity and consistency.

nit: we don't need this export (only a root controller can handle
NMIs), and that's the sort of thing I would really want to avoid
exposing to modules.

Sure, I'll drop that; I'd only added that for symmetry with
generic_handle_domain_irq(), and I don't need it to be exported.

Thanks,
Mark.
