uio: disable lazy irq disable to avoid double fire
uio_pdrv_genirq and uio_dmem_genirq interrupts are handled in
userspace. So the condition for the interrupt hasn't normally not been
cleared when top half returns. disable_irq_nosync is called in top half,
but since that normally is lazy the irq isn't actually disabled.

For level triggered interrupts this will always result in a spurious
additional fire since the level in to the interrupt controller still is
active. The actual interrupt handler isn't run though since this
spurious irq is just recorded, and later on discared (for level).

This commit disables lazy masking for level triggered interrupts. It
leaves edge triggered interrupts as before, because they work with the
lazy scheme.

All other UIO drivers already seem to clear the interrupt cause at
driver levels.

Example of double fire. First goes all the way up to
uio_pdrv_genirq_handler, second is terminated in handle_fasteoi_irq and
marked as pending.

HInt-34  [001] d... 8.245897: uio_pdrv_genirq_irqcontrol: enable irq 29

Tested on 5.7rc2 using uio_pdrv_genirq and a custom Xilinx MPSoC board.
