I don't think irq_gc_mask_disable_reg and irq_gc_unmask_enable_reg are meant
as callbacks for irq_enable/irq_disable. As the name implies they are
standardized callbacks for irq_mask/irq_unmask on machines using a different
scheme for masking. So I would expected that they operate on the same
mask_cache because both types of functions handle masking on different types of
interrupt controllers.
There don't seem to be any generalized callbacks for irq_enable/irq_disable
themself, probably because machines do the most uncommon things there :-)
