Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: irq-mips-gic.c: handle pending interrupts once in __gic_irq_dispatch()

When an interrupt occurs __gic_irq_dispatch() continuously reads local and shared pending registers
until all is serviced before returning. The problem with that is that it could introduce
a long delay before returning if a piece of hardware keeps triggering while in one of these loops.

To ensure fairness and priority doesn't get skewed a lot, read local and shared pending registers once
to service each pending IRQ once.
If another interupt triggers while servicing the current ones, then we shall re-enter the handler after
we return.
