Paul Mundt 43b8774dc4 sh: intc: userimask support.
This adds support for hardware-assisted userspace irq masking for
special priority levels. Due to the SR.IMASK interactivity, only some
platforms implement this in hardware (including but not limited to
SH-4A interrupt controllers, and ARM-based SH-Mobile CPUs). Each CPU
needs to wire this up on its own, for now only SH7786 is wired up as an
example.

help
This enables support for hardware-assisted userspace hardirq
masking.
SH-4A and newer interrupt blocks all support a special shadowed
page with all non-masking registers obscured when mapped in to
userspace. This is primarily for use by userspace device
drivers that are using special priority levels.
If in doubt, say N.
