Why do we need to mask before setting irq type? Does something go wrong?
Can you explain in the commit text?

Does this need a Fixes tag?

This is sort of sad. We have to set the IRQCHIP_MASK_ON_SUSPEND flag
here so that genirq can call the mask op during suspend for the parent
irqchip (pdc)? Is there some way to not need to do that and instead let
genirq do mask on suspend at the chip level instead of the irq level?
