irqchip/gic-v3: Enable non-coherent redistributors/ITSes ACPI probing

The GIC architecture specification defines a set of registers for
redistributors and ITSes that control the sharebility and cacheability
attributes of redistributors/ITSes initiator ports on the interconnect
(GICR_[V]PROPBASER, GICR_[V]PENDBASER, GITS_BASER<n>).

Architecturally the GIC provides a means to drive shareability and
cacheability attributes signals but it is not mandatory for designs to
wire up the corresponding interconnect signals that control the
cacheability/shareability of transactions.

Redistributors and ITSes interconnect ports can be connected to
non-coherent interconnects that are not able to manage the
shareability/cacheability attributes; this implicitly makes the
redistributors and ITSes non-coherent observers.

To enable non-coherent GIC designs on ACPI based systems, parse the MADT
GICC/GICR/ITS subtables non-coherent flags to determine whether the
respective components are non-coherent observers and force the
shareability attributes to be programmed into the redistributors and
ITSes registers.

An ACPI global function (acpi_get_madt_revision()) is added to retrieve
the MADT revision, in that it is essential to check the MADT revision
before checking for flags that were added with MADT revision 7 so that
if the kernel is booted with an ACPI MADT table with revision < 7 it
skips parsing the newly added flags (that should be zeroed reserved
values for MADT versions < 7 but they could turn out to be buggy and
should be ignored).
