[PATCH v2 14/15] arm_mpam: prevent MPAM-Fb accesses inside IRQ handler

When an MPAM MSC gets into an error condition, it can trigger an error
IRQ. We cannot really do much about those errors, but we at least query
and log the error, then disable MPAM functionality.
This error report relies on reading the MSC's error status register
(ESR) in the IRQ handler, which is not possible for MPAM-Fb based
MSC accesses, since they involve mailbox routines that might sleep.
The same is true for clearing the interrupt at the source, which
requires MSC access.
For simplicity just skip the ESR read when the MSC is not using direct
MMIO accesses, and just ignore the pending interrupts. We will wrap up
MPAM functionality regardless, knowing the exact error value will not
change that.
