Mikael Pettersson c663600584 m68k: Correct the Atari ALLOWINT definition
Booting a 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4-rc4 kernel on an Atari using the
`nfeth' ethernet device triggers a WARN_ONCE() in generic irq
handling code on the first irq for that device:

WARNING: at kernel/irq/handle.c:146 handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142()
irq 3 handler nfeth_interrupt+0x0/0x194 enabled interrupts

After invoking the irq's handler the kernel sees !irqs_disabled()
and concludes that the handler erroneously enabled interrupts.

However, debugging shows that !irqs_disabled() is true even before
the handler is invoked, which indicates a problem in the platform
code rather than the specific driver.

The warning does not occur in 3.1 or older kernels.

It turns out that the ALLOWINT definition for Atari is incorrect.

The Atari definition of ALLOWINT is ~0x400, the stated purpose of
that is to avoid taking HSYNC interrupts.  irqs_disabled() returns
true if the 3-bit ipl & 4 is non-zero.  The nfeth interrupt runs at
ipl 3 (it's autovector 3), but 3 & 4 is zero so irqs_disabled() is
false, and the warning above is generated.

When interrupts are explicitly disabled, ipl is set to 7.  When they
are enabled, ipl is masked with ALLOWINT.  On Atari this will result
in ipl = 3, which blocks interrupts at ipl 3 and below.  So how come
nfeth interrupts at ipl 3 are received at all?  That's because ipl
is reset to 2 by Atari-specific code in default_idle(), again with
the stated purpose of blocking HSYNC interrupts.  This discrepancy
means that ipl 3 can remain blocked for longer than intended.

Both default_idle() and falcon_hblhandler() identify HSYNC with
ipl 2, and the "Atari ST/.../F030 Hardware Register Listing" agrees,
but ALLOWINT is defined as if HSYNC was ipl 3.

[As an experiment I modified default_idle() to reset ipl to 3, and
as expected that resulted in all nfeth interrupts being blocked.]

The fix is simple: define ALLOWINT as ~0x500 instead.  This makes
arch_local_irq_enable() consistent with default_idle(), and prevents
the !irqs_disabled() problems for ipl 3 interrupts.

Tested on Atari running in an Aranym VM.
