[PATCH] genirq: Fix software resend lockup and nested resend

[Johan Hovold <johan+linaro@kernel.org>]

The switch to using hlist for managing software resend of interrupts
broke resend in at least two ways:

First, unconditionally adding interrupt descriptors to the resend list
can corrupt the list when the descriptor in question has already been
added. This causes the resend tasklet to loop indefinitely with
interrupts disabled as was recently reported with the Lenovo ThinkPad
X13s after threaded NAPI was disabled in the ath11k WiFi driver. [1]

This bug is easily fixed by restoring the old semantics of
irq_sw_resend() so that it can be called also for descriptors that have
already been marked for resend.

Second, the offending commit also broke software resend of nested
interrupts by simply discarding the code that made sure that such
interrupts are retriggered using the parent interrupt.

Add back the corresponding code that adds the parent descriptor to the
resend list. Note that this bit is untested, but I decided to include it
to avoid having to revert the offending commit and the maple tree
conversion that depends on it.

Hi Thomas and Marc,

This patch fixes a severe regression in the resend code in 6.5-rc1 that
breaks machines like the Lenovo X13s and which ideally should be
addressed before 6.5 is released tomorrow.

I hesitated about including the fix for nested interrupts as I've not
had time to test this bit, but I ultimately decided to include it to
avoid having to suggest a revert of the maple tree conversion. Let me
know if you prefer to go this route and I'll post a (prepared) revert
series instead.

Johan
