[PATCH v2 3/5] irqchip, gicv3: Workaround for Cavium ThunderX erratum 23154

From: Robert Richter <rrichter at cavium.com>

This patch implements Cavium ThunderX erratum 23154.

The gicv3 of ThunderX requires a modified version for reading the IAR
status to ensure data synchronization. Since this is in the fast-path
and called with each interrupt, runtime patching is used using jump
label patching for smallest overhead (no-op). This is the same
technique as used for tracepoints.

v2:
 * implement code in a single asm() to keep instruction sequence
 * added comment to the code that explains the erratum
 * apply workaround also if running as guest, thus check MIDR
