Subject: [PATCH RESEND] irqchip: sun4i: Don't write to read-only registers

According to the datasheet[1], the Interrupt IRQ Pending Registers are
read-only. The implementation of sun4i_irq_ack() is wrong because it writes
to these read-only registers.

This patch removes the wrong irq_ack callback implementation and all the code
writing to these read-only registers in sun4i_of_init().

Hi Thomas,
This patch was sent on https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/6/59 with Maxime's Ack.
And re-sent on https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/19/229
I change the subject line as the patch does is to avoid writing to read-only
registers.
