The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit
RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the
kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were
already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes
employees.
As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V,
and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels
provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline
support any more.
While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets
worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best
to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns
out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer
to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

In preparation for removing HANDLE_DOMAIN_IRQ, have arch/nds32 perform
all the necessary IRQ entry accounting in its entry code.
Currently arch/nds32 is tightly coupled with the ativic32 irqchip, and
while the entry code should logically live under arch/nds32/, moving the
entry logic there makes things more convoluted. So for now, place the
entry logic in the ativic32 irqchip, but separated into a separate
function to make the split of responsibility clear.
In future this should probably use GENERIC_IRQ_MULTI_HANDLER to cleanly
decouple this.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

This is passed to irq_domain_add_linear(), which accepts a pointer
to a const structure.

There are three sleep states in nds32:
suspend to idle,
suspend to standby,
suspend to ram
In suspend to ram, we use the 'standby' instruction to emulate
power management device to hang the system util wakeup source
send wakeup events to break the loop.
First, we push the general purpose registers and system registers
to stack. Second, we translate stack pointer to physical address
and store to memory to save the stack pointer. Third, after write
back and invalid the cache we hang in 'standby' intruction.
When wakeup source trigger wake up events, the loop will be break
and resume the system.
