dmaengine: qcom: gpi: Add GPI Block event interrupt support
GSI hardware generates an interrupt for each transfer completion.
For multiple messages within a single transfer, this results in
N interrupts for N messages, leading to significant software
interrupt latency.
To mitigate this latency, utilize Block Event Interrupt (BEI) mechanism.
Enabling BEI instructs the GSI hardware to prevent interrupt generation
and BEI is disabled when an interrupt is necessary.
Large I2C transfer can be divided into chunks of messages internally.
Interrupts are not expected for the messages for which BEI bit set,
only the last message triggers an interrupt, indicating the completion of
N messages. This BEI mechanism enhances overall transfer efficiency.
