[PATCH 36/38] genirq: Trust local irqchip when considering IRQ for NMI

> Generic IRQ code sanitises whether an IRQ can be considered for NMI
> use. Currently, it only considers IRQs managed by the root irqchip.
> 
> GICv5 IPIs belong to a logical domain built on top of the LPI domain.
> Consequently, generic IRQ code rejects these IPIs for NMI use, even
> though their hardware state is managed by the root LPI domain.
> 
> One way to allow GICv5 IPIs to be used as NMIs would be to adjust the
> sanitisation logic to account for this domain hierarchy. However, the
> generic IRQ code can instead trust the local irqchip.

> Remove the root irqchip check and use the local irqchip when
