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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
