Subject: [PATCH 1/2] irqchip/gic-v3-its: bail out on already enabled LPIs

The GICv3 spec says that once LPIs have been enabled, they can't be
disabled anymore:
"When a write changes this bit from 0 to 1, this bit becomes RES1 ..."
As we can't setup the pending and property table registers when LPIs are
enabled, we have to bail out here in this case.
But first try to disable LPIs anyway, to check whether this actually works.
If not, return an error.
