genirq: Clear action->thread_mask if IRQ_ONESHOT is not set
Xommit ac5637611(genirq: Unmask oneshot irqs when thread was not woken) fails to unmask when a !IRQ_ONESHOT threaded handler is handled by handle_level_irq. This happens because thread_mask is or'ed unconditionally in irq_wake_thread(), but for !IRQ_ONESHOT interrupts never cleared. So the check for !desc->thread_active fails and keeps the interrupt disabled. Keep the thread_mask zero for !IRQ_ONESHOT interrupts. Document the thread_mask magic while at it.
