hwtracing: hisi_ptt: Handle the interrupt in hardirq context

Handle the trace interrupt in the hardirq context, make sure the irq
core won't threaded it by declaring IRQF_NO_THREAD and userspace won't
balance it by declaring IRQF_NOBALANCING. Otherwise we may violate the
synchronization requirements of the perf core, referenced to the
change of arm-ccn PMU
  commit 0811ef7e2f54 ("bus: arm-ccn: fix PMU interrupt flags").

In the interrupt handler we mainly doing 2 things:
- Copy the data from the local DMA buffer to the AUX buffer
- Commit the data in the AUX buffer
