[PATCH v3] crypto: amlogic: Fix IRQ handler return value and fallthrough logic

[Mohamad Raizudeen <raizudeen.kerneldev@gmail.com>]

In meson_irq_handler(), when an interrupt matches a flow but the status
register is empty, the driver prints an error but doesn't return. It
falls through the loop and incorrectly prints an `unknown irq` message.

Fix this by returning immediately. For empty status registers, return
IRQ_NONE instead of IRQ_HANDLED to avoid masking spurious interrupts and
allow the kernel to detect interrupt storms. Also use
dev_err_ratelimited() to prevent console lockups during an interrupt
storm.

Additionally, the handler returned IRQ_HANDLED for genuinely unknown
interrupts. Return IRQ_NONE instead for unhandled interrupts.

I have addressed the IRQ specific issues in this v3. The other
pre-exisiting issues mentioned by Sashiko are already addressed in my
separate patch.

Changes in v3:
- Revert accidental clock management changes that were squashed into v2.

Changes in v2:
- Return IRQ_NONE instead of IRQ_HANDLED when status register is empty
  to avoid masking spurious interrupts.
- Use dev_err_ratelimited() to prevent console lockups.
