irqchip/gic: Atomically update affinity
The GIC driver uses a RMW sequence to update the affinity, and relies on the gic_lock_irqsave/gic_unlock_irqrestore sequences to update it atomically. But these sequences only expand into anything meaningful if the BL_SWITCHER option is selected, which almost never happens. It also turns out that using a RMW and locks is just as silly, as the GIC distributor supports byte accesses for the GICD_TARGETRn registers, which when used make the update atomic by definition. Drop the terminally broken code and replace it by a byte write.
