[PATCH 0/2] Use raw spinlocks in the ls-extirq driver

From: Vladimir Oltean

The ls-extirq irqchip driver accesses regmap inside its implementation
of the struct irq_chip :: irq_set_type method, and currently regmap
only knows to lock using normal spinlocks. But the method above wants
raw spinlock context, so this isn't going to work and triggers a
"[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]" splat.

The best we can do given the arrangement of the code is to patch regmap
and the syscon driver: regmap to support raw spinlocks, and syscon to
request them on behalf of its ls-extirq consumer.
