The GITS_TYPE_PHYSICAL define is the value we set the
GITS_TYPER.Physical field to -- this is 1 to indicate that we support
physical LPIs.  (Support for virtual LPIs is the GITS_TYPER.Virtual
field.) We also use this define as the *value* that we write into an
interrupt translation table entry's INTTYPE field, which should be 1
for a physical interrupt and 0 for a virtual interrupt.  Finally, we
use it as a *mask* when we read the interrupt translation table entry
INTTYPE field.

Untangle this confusion: define an ITE_INTTYPE_VIRTUAL and
ITE_INTTYPE_PHYSICAL to be the valid values of the ITE INTTYPE
field, and replace the ad-hoc collection of ITE_ENTRY_* defines with
use of the FIELD() macro to define the fields of an ITE and the
FIELD_EX64() and FIELD_DP64() macros to read and write them.
We use ITE in the new setup, rather than ITE_ENTRY, because
ITE stands for "Interrupt translation entry" and so the extra
"entry" would be redundant.

We take the opportunity to correct the name of the field that holds
the GICv4 'doorbell' interrupt ID (this is always the value 1023 in a
GICv3, which is why we were calling it the 'spurious' field).

The GITS_TYPE_PHYSICAL define is then used in only one place, where
we set the initial GITS_TYPER value.  Since GITS_TYPER.Physical is
essentially a boolean, hiding the '1' value behind a macro is more
confusing than helpful, so expand out the macro there and remove the
define entirely.
