[PATCH v3 0/2] irqchip/riscv-aplic: Use trigger specific flow handlers in MSI mode

In MSI mode the APLIC handles all sources with handle_fasteoi_irq().
For edge-triggered sources this loses an interrupt which arrives on
the new CPU while the previous one is still being handled after an
affinity change. The fasteoi flow also never calls irq_ack(), where
IMSIC applies an affinity change deferred while a previous vector move
was in flight. Such a change stays pending, and later affinity changes
of the interrupt only update the pending mask.
Use handle_edge_irq() for edge-triggered sources and
handle_fasteoi_ack_irq() for level-triggered sources.

Changes in v3:
- Add Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner to patch 1
- Add braces around the multi-line if/else branches
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20261110-aplic-affinity-fix-v2-0-6c143b8b4e8c@linux.dev
