[PATCH v3 7/9] genirq: handle separate mask registers

There are cases where all irq_chip_type instances have separate mask registers,
making a shared mask register cache unsuitable for the purpose.
So introduce a new flag IRQ_GC_SEPARATE_MASK_REGISTERS to explicitly enable
this separate treatment.
When this flag is not set, pointers for all irq_chip_type instances point
to the the shared mask register as it has been done so far.
