Eliav Farber 60331e0917 kexec: Consolidate machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() implementation
[ Upstream commit bad6722e47 ]

Consolidate the machine_kexec_mask_interrupts implementation into a common
function located in a new file: kernel/irq/kexec.c. This removes duplicate
implementations from architecture-specific files in arch/arm, arch/arm64,
arch/powerpc, and arch/riscv, reducing code duplication and improving
maintainability.

The new implementation retains architecture-specific behavior for
CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_KEXEC_CLEAR_VM_FORWARD, which was previously implemented
for ARM64. When enabled (currently for ARM64), it clears the active state
of interrupts forwarded to virtual machines (VMs) before handling other
interrupt masking operations.
