ARCv2: SMP: Emulate IPI to self using software triggered interrupt
ARConnect/MCIP Inter-Core-Interrupt module can't send interrupt to local core. So use core intc capability to trigger software interrupt to self, using an unsued IRQ #21. This showed up as csd deadlock with LTP trace_sched on a dual core system. This test acts as scheduler fuzzer, triggering all sorts of schedulting activity. Trouble starts with IPI to self, which doesn't get delivered (effectively lost due to H/w capability), but the msg intended to be sent remain enqueued in per-cpu @ipi_data. All subsequent IPIs to this core from other cores get elided due to the IPI coalescing optimization in ipi_send_msg_one() where a pending msg implies an IPI already sent and assumes other core is yet to ack it. After the elided IPI, other core simply goes into csd_lock_wait() but never comes out as this core never sees the interrupt.
