Subject: [PATCH] irqchip/sifive-plic: allow many cores to handle IRQs

Currently, driver forces the IRQs to be handled by only one core. This
patch provides the way to enable others cores to handle IRQs if needed,
so users could decide how many cores they wanted on default by boot
argument.

Use 'irqaffinity' boot argument to determine affinity. If there is no
irqaffinity in dts or kernel configuration, use irq default affinity,
so all harts would try to claim IRQ.

For example, add irqaffinity=0 in chosen node to set irq affinity to
hart 0. It also supports more than one harts to handle irq, such as set
irqaffinity=0,3,4.

You can change IRQ affinity from user-space using procfs. For example,
you can make CPU0 and CPU2 serve IRQ together by the following command:

echo 4 > /proc/irq/<x>/smp_affinity
