The second patch fixes an unhandled IRQ storm triggered by the mvpp2
ethernet driver, when the kernel is built with CONFIG_SMP=n.

When any network activity is attempted the kernel is interrupted by a per-cpu 
IRQ (which is not the one the driver expects). The interrupt is not mapped 
into Linux's virtual IRQ space, so the result is:

  irq 0, desc: ee004000, depth: 1, count: 0, unhandled: 0
  ->handle_irq():  c00466e8, handle_bad_irq+0x0/0x260
  ->irq_data.chip(): c1181460, 0xc1181460
  ->action():   (null)
     IRQ_NOPROBE set
   IRQ_NOREQUEST set

For both patches:

Fixes: bc69b8adfe22 ("irqchip: armada-370-xp: Setup a chained handler for the MPIC")
