Boris BREZILLON 9dcc87fec8 ARM: at91: fix at91_sysirq_mask_rtc for sam9x5 SoCs
sam9x5 SoCs have the following errata:
 "RTC: Interrupt Mask Register cannot be used
  Interrupt Mask Register read always returns 0."

Hence we should not rely on what IMR claims about already masked IRQs
and just disable all IRQs.

Johan Hovold 94c4c79f2f ARM: at91: fix hanged boot due to early rtt-interrupt
Make sure the RTT-interrupts are masked at boot by adding a new helper
function to be used at SOC-init.

This fixes hanged boot on all AT91 SOCs with an RTT, for example, if an
RTT-alarm goes off after a non-clean shutdown (e.g. when using RTC
wakeup).

The RTC and RTT-peripherals are powered by backup power (VDDBU) (on all
AT91 SOCs but RM9200) and are not reset on wake-up, user, watchdog or
software reset. This means that their interrupts may be enabled during
early boot if, for example, they where not disabled during a previous
shutdown (e.g. due to a buggy driver or a non-clean shutdown such as a
user reset). Furthermore, an RTC or RTT-alarm may also be active.

The RTC and RTT-interrupts use the shared system-interrupt line, which
is also used by the PIT, and if an interrupt occurs before a handler
(e.g. RTC-driver) has been installed this leads to the system interrupt
being disabled and prevents the system from booting.

Note that when boot hangs due to an early RTC or RTT-interrupt, the only
way to get the system to start again is to remove the backup power (e.g.
battery) or to disable the interrupt manually from the bootloader. In
particular, a user reset is not sufficient.
