Subject: [PATCH v2] irqchip/gic-v4: Fix ordering between vmapp and vpe locks

The (recently established) lock ordering mandates that the per-VM
vmapp_lock is acquired before we take the per-VPE lock.

As it turns out, its_vpe_set_affinity() takes the VPE lock, and
then calls into its_send_vmovp(), which itself takes the vmapp
lock. Obviously, this isn't what we want.

As its_send_vmovp() is only called from its_vpe_set_affinity(),
hoist the vmapp locking from the former into the latter, restoring
the expected order.

Fixes: f0eb154c39471 ("irqchip/gic-v4: Substitute vmovp_lock for a per-VM lock")

Notes:
    v2:
      - Dropped flags and rely on the irq_data being locked with interrupts
        disabled
    
      - Add extra documentation to explain why taking the vmapp_lock is
        dependent on the HW requiring the use of the ITS list
    
    v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240723175203.3193882-1-maz@kernel.org
