[PATCH v3 0/7] ARM: mediatek: Add support for interrupt polarity

This series is 3rd version of interrupt polarity support for MediaTek
SoCs. Unlike previous attempts[1], this version is implemented with hierarchy
irqdomain. This is based on Jiang's hierarchy irqdomain v2 [2] and my
mediatek SoC basic support [3].

Simplified block diagram for interrupt:

    +-------+      +-------+
 ---| SYSIRQ|------|ARM GIC|
 ---|       |------|       |
 ---|       |------|       |
 ---|       |------|       |
 ---|       |------|       |
    +-------+      +-------+

In device tree, interrupt-parent for other devices is sysirq, child of gic.
This describe HW better and allow device to specify polarity as it is sent
by the device.

In order to use hierarchy irq domain, gic can't use legacy irq domain anymore.
When arm,hierarchy-irq-domain property is specified, GIC will work in hierarchy
way and all interrupt numbers must be set by device tree. My /proc/interrupts
looks like this:

# cat /proc/interrupts
           CPU0
 16:       1862  MT_SYSIRQ 113  mtk_timer
 17:         67  MT_SYSIRQ  54  mtk-uart
