Subject: [PATCH v2] irqchip/sifive-plic: enable interrupt if needed before EOI

RISC-V PLIC cannot "end-of-interrupt" (EOI) disabled interrupts, as
explained in the description of Interrupt Completion in the PLIC spec:

"The PLIC signals it has completed executing an interrupt handler by
writing the interrupt ID it received from the claim to the claim/complete
register. The PLIC does not check whether the completion ID is the same
as the last claim ID for that target. If the completion ID does not match
an interrupt source that *is currently enabled* for the target, the
completion is silently ignored."

Commit 69ea463021be ("irqchip/sifive-plic: Fixup EOI failed when masked")
ensured that EOI is successful by enabling interrupt first, before EOI.

Commit a1706a1c5062 ("irqchip/sifive-plic: Separate the enable and mask
operations") removed the interrupt enabling code from the previous
commit, because it assumes that interrupt should already be enabled at the
point of EOI. However, this is incorrect: there is a window after a hart
claiming an interrupt and before irq_desc->lock getting acquired,
interrupt can be disabled during this window. Thus, EOI can be invoked
while the interrupt is disabled, effectively nullify this EOI. This
results in the interrupt never gets asserted again, and the device who
uses this interrupt appears frozen.

Make sure that interrupt is really enabled before EOI.
