[PATCH V6 5/8] firmware: imx: scu-irq: fix RCU complaint after M4 partition reset

From: Peng Fan (OSS)

From: Robin Gong <yibin.gong@xxxxxxx>

Use blocking_notifier_chain instead of atomic_notifier_chain, otherwise
there will be RCU complaint, because unregister/register_virtio_device()
will issue mbox message.

mbox_send_message() is blocking again after received M4 partition reset.

Actually, no need atomic notifier for scu irq notification since this
notifier is called in worker instead of interrupt handler.
