I'm now OK with the code (modulo the small nit below), but the commit
message is a complete mess. How about something like:

The current handling of legacy interrupts in the Xilinx NWL driver is
completely dysfunctional: Interrupts are handled as edge instead of
level, and there is no way to mask an interrupt, leading to drivers
misbehaving.

Let's address this by making it a full blown irqchip, implement
mask/unmask methods, and use handle_level_irq as the flow handler.

You don't need these two if they are implemented in terms of mask/unmask.
