Running a lockedp-enabled kernel on a vim3l board (Amlogic SM1)
leads to the following splat:

[   13.891014]  *** DEADLOCK ***

The issue can occur when CPU1 is doing something like irq_set_type()
and CPU0 performing an interrupt allocation, for example. Taking
an interrupt (like the one being reconfigured) would lead to a deadlock.

A solution to this is:

- Reorder the locking so that meson_gpio_irq_update_bits takes the lock
  itself at all times, instead of relying on the caller to lock or not,
  hence making the RMW sequence atomic,

- Rework the critical section in meson_gpio_irq_request_channel to only
  cover the allocation itself, and let the gpio_irq_sel_pin callback
  deal with its own locking if required,

- Take the private spin-lock with interrupts disabled at all times
