[PATCH kernel v4 2/2] powerpc/xive: Drop current cpu priority for orphaned interrupts

There is a race between releasing an irq on one cpu and fetching it
from XIVE on another cpu. When such released irq appears in a queue,
we take it from the queue but we do not change the current priority
on that cpu and since there is no handler for the irq, EOI is never
called and the cpu current priority remains elevated
(7 vs. 0xff==unmasked). If another irq is assigned to the same cpu,
then that device stops working until irq is moved to another cpu or
the device is reset.
This implements ppc_md.orphan_irq callback which is called if no irq
descriptor is found and which drops the current priority
to 0xff which effectively unmasks interrupts in a current CPU.
