genirq/kexec: Prevent redundant IRQ masking by checking state before shutdown
During machine kexec, machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() is responsible for
disabling or masking all interrupts. While the irq_disable() is only
invoked when the interrupt is not yet disabled, it unconditionally invokes
the irq_mask() callback for every interrupt descriptor, even when the
interrupt is already masked or not even started up yet.
A specific issue was observed in the crash kernel flow after unbinding a
device (prior to kexec) that used a GPIO as an IRQ source. The warning was
triggered by the gpiochip_disable_irq() function, which attempts to clear
the FLAG_IRQ_IS_ENABLED flag when FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ was not set.
This issue surfaced after commit a817382 ("gpio: gpiolib: Allow GPIO
IRQs to lazy disable") introduced lazy disablement for GPIO IRQs. It
replaced disable/enable hooks with mask/unmask hooks. Unlike the disable
hook, the mask hook doesn't handle already-masked IRQs.
When a GPIO-IRQ driver is unbound, the IRQ is released, triggering
__irq_disable() and irq_state_set_masked(). A subsequent call to
machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() re-invokes chip->irq_mask(). This results
in a call chain, including gpiochip_irq_mask() and gpiochip_disable_irq().
Since FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ was cleared earlier, the warning is triggered.
Replace the direct invocation of the irq_mask() and irq_disable() callbacks
invoking to irq_shutdown(), which handles the cases correct and avoid it
all together when the interrupt has never been started up.
