    Fix the IRQ handling on the MN10300 arch.
    
    This patch makes a number of significant changes:
    
     (1) It separates the irq_chip definition for edge-triggered interrupts from
         the one for level-triggered interrupts.
    
         This is necessary because the MN10300 PIC latches the IRQ channel's
         interrupt request bit (GxICR_REQUEST), even after the device has ceased to
         assert its interrupt line and the interrupt channel has been disabled in
         the PIC.  So for level-triggered interrupts we need to clear this bit when
         we re-enable - which is achieved by setting GxICR_DETECT but not
         GxICR_REQUEST when writing to the register.
    
         Not doing this results in spurious interrupts occurring because calling
         mask_ack() at the start of handle_level_irq() is insufficient - it fails
         to clear the REQUEST latch because the device that caused the interrupt is
         still asserting its interrupt line at this point.
    
     (2) IRQ disablement [irq_chip::disable_irq()] shouldn't clear the interrupt
         request flag for edge-triggered interrupts lest it lose an interrupt.
    
     (3) IRQ unmasking [irq_chip::unmask_irq()] also shouldn't clear the interrupt
         request flag for edge-triggered interrupts lest it lose an interrupt.
    
     (4) The end() operation is now left to the default (no-operation) as
         __do_IRQ() is compiled out.  This may affect misrouted_irq(), but
         according to Thomas Gleixner it's the correct thing to do.
    
     (5) handle_level_irq() is used for edge-triggered interrupts rather than
         handle_edge_irq() as the MN10300 PIC latches interrupt events even on
         masked IRQ channels, thus rendering IRQ_PENDING unnecessary.  It is
         sufficient to call mask_ack() at the start and unmask() at the end.
    
     (6) For level-triggered interrupts, ack() is now NULL as it's not used, and
         there is no effective ACK function on the PIC.  mask_ack() is now the
         same as mask() as the latch continues to latch, even when the channel is
         masked.
    
    Further, the patch discards the disable() op implementation as its now the same
    as the mask() op implementation, which is used instead.
    
    It also discards the enable() op implementations as they're now the same as
    the unmask() op implementations, which are used instead.
