[PATCH v1] irq: Introduce IRQF_COND_ONESHOT and use it in pinctrl-amd

There is a problem when a driver requests a shared IRQ line to run
a threaded handler on it without IRQF_ONESHOT set if that flag has
been set already for the IRQ in question by somebody else. Namely,
the request fails which usually leads to a probe failure even though
the driver might have worked just fine with IRQF_ONESHOT, but it does
not want to use it by default. Currently, the only way to handle this
is to try to request the IRQ without IRQF_ONESHOT, but with
IRQF_PROBE_SHARED set and if this fails, try again with IRQF_ONESHOT
set. However, this is a bit cumbersome and not very clean.

When commit 7a36b901a6eb ("ACPI: OSL: Use a threaded interrupt handler
for SCI") switched over the ACPI subsystem to using a threaded interrupt
handler for the SCI, it had to use IRQF_ONESHOT for it because that's
required due to the way the SCI handler works (it needs to walk all of
the enabled GPEs before IRQ line can be unmasked). The SCI IRQ line is
not shared with other users very often due to the SCI handling overhead,
but on sone systems it is shared and when the other user of it attempts
to install a threaded handler, a flags mismatch related to IRQF_ONESHOT
may occur. As it turned out, that happened to the pinctrl-amd driver
and so commit 4451e8e8415e ("pinctrl: amd: Add IRQF_ONESHOT to the
interrupt request") attempted to address the issue by adding
IRQF_ONESHOT to the interrupt flags in that driver, but this is now
causing an IRQF_ONESHOT-related mismatch to occur on another system
which cannot boot as a result of it.

Clearly, pinctrl-amd can work with IRQF_ONESHOT if need be, but it
should not set that flag by default, so it needs a way to indicate that
to the IRQ subsystem.

To that end, introdcuce a new interrupt flag, IRQF_COND_ONESHOT, which
will only have effect when the IRQ line is shared and IRQF_ONESHOT has
been set for it already, in which case it will be promoted to the
latter.

This is sufficient for drivers sharing the IRQ line with the SCI as it
is requested by the ACPI subsystem before any drivers are probed, so
they will always see IRQF_ONESHOT set for the IRQ in question.
