This is definitely a defect and non-compliance for T-HEAD because
no sane interrupt controller would mask interrupt upon claim and this
is not what RISC-V PLIC defines.

> 2. EOI failed when masked

This defect exists for both RISC-V PLIC and T-HEAD PLIC
because of the way interrupt completion is defined.

There are no per-interrupt mask bits. We only have per-context
and per-interrupt enable bits which is used to provide mask/unmask
functionality expected by the irqchip framework.

I don't see how this is a problem for RISC-V PLIC. The only real
issue with RISC-V PLIC is the fact the interrupt completion will be
ignored for a masked interrupt which is what Marc is pointing at.
