Some SoCs may be equipped with a GPU containing two core groups
and this is exactly the case of Samsung's Exynos 5422 featuring
an ARM Mali-T628 MP6 GPU: the support for this GPU in Panfrost
is partial, as this driver currently supports using only one
core group and that's reflected on all parts of it, including
the power on (and power off, previously to this patch) function.

The issue with this is that even though executing the soft reset
operation should power off all cores unconditionally, on at least
one platform we're seeing a crash that seems to be happening due
to an interrupt firing which may be because we are calling power
transition only on the first core group, leaving the second one
unchanged, or because ISR execution was pending before entering
the panfrost_gpu_power_off() function and executed after powering
off the GPU cores, or all of the above.

Finally, solve this by introducing a new panfrost_gpu_suspend_irq()
helper function and changing the panfrost_device_suspend() flow to
  1. Mask and clear all interrupts: we don't need nor want any, as
     for power_off() we are polling PWRTRANS, but we anyway don't
     want GPU IRQs to fire while it is suspended/powered off;
  2. Call synchronize_irq() after that to make sure that any pending
     ISR is executed before powering off the GPU Shaders/Tilers/L2
     hence avoiding unpowered registers R/W; and
  3. Ignore the core_mask and ask the GPU to poweroff both core groups

Of course it was also necessary to add a `irq` variable to `struct
panfrost_device` as we need to get that in panfrost_gpu_power_off()
for calling synchronize_irq() on it.

Thank you for the test and, more importantly, for your patience.

Cheers,
Angelo

Best regards,
