James Gowans 8f4b589595 irqchip/gic-v3-its: Enable RESEND_WHEN_IN_PROGRESS for LPIs
GICv3 LPIs are impacted by an architectural design issue: they do not
have a global active state and as such a given LPI can be delivered to
a new CPU after an affinity change while the previous instance of the
same LPI handler has not yet completed on the original CPU.

If LPIs had an active state, this second LPI would not be delivered
until the first CPU deactivated the initial LPI, just like SPIs.

To solve this issue, use the newly introduced IRQD_RESEND_WHEN_IN_PROGRESS
flag, ensuring that we do not lose an LPI being delivered during that window
by getting the GIC to resend it.

This workaround gets enabled for all LPIs, including the VPE doorbells.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
