As Jan reported [1], lockdep complains about the VGIC not being bullet
proof. This seems to be due to two issues:
- When commit 006df0f349 ("KVM: arm/arm64: Support calling
  vgic_update_irq_pending from irq context") promoted irq_lock and
  ap_list_lock to _irqsave, we forgot two instances of irq_lock.
  lockdeps seems to pick those up.
- If a lock is _irqsave, any other locks we take inside them should be
  _irqsafe as well. So the lpi_list_lock needs to be promoted also.

This fixes both issues by simply making the remaining instances of those
locks _irqsave.
One irq_lock is addressed in a separate patch, to simplify backporting.
