soundwire: intel/cadence: merge Soundwire interrupt handlers/threads
The existing code uses one pair of interrupt handler/thread per link but at the hardware level the interrupt is shared. This works fine for legacy PCI interrupts, but leads to timeouts in MSI (Message-Signaled Interrupt) mode, likely due to edges being lost. This patch unifies interrupt handling for all links. The dedicated handler is removed since we use a common one for all shared interrupt sources, and the thread function takes care of dealing with interrupt sources. This partition follows the model used for the SOF IPC on HDaudio platforms, where similar timeout issues were noticed and doing all the interrupt handling/clearing in the thread improved reliability/stability. Validation results with 4 links active in parallel show a night-and-day improvement with no timeouts noticed even during stress tests. Latency and quality of service are not affected by the change - mostly because events on a SoundWire link are throttled by the bus frame rate (typically 8..48kHz).
