mei: vsc: Fix "BUG: Invalid wait context" lockdep error

Kernels build with CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING report the following
tp-vsc lockdep error:

=============================
 [ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
 ...
 swapper/10/0 is trying to lock:
 ffff88819c271888 (&tp->xfer_wait){....}-{3:3},
  at: __wake_up (kernel/sched/wait.c:106 kernel/sched/wait.c:127)
 ...
 Call Trace:

 __wake_up (kernel/sched/wait.c:106 kernel/sched/wait.c:127)

 ...
 </IRQ>

The root-cause of this is the IRQF_NO_THREAD flag used by the intel-pinctrl
code. Setting IRQF_NO_THREAD requires all interrupt handlers for GPIO ISRs
to use raw-spinlocks only since normal spinlocks can sleep in PREEMPT-RT
kernels and with IRQF_NO_THREAD the interrupt handlers will always run in
an atomic context [1].

vsc_tp_isr() calls wake_up(&tp->xfer_wait), which uses a regular spinlock,
breaking the raw-spinlocks only rule for Intel GPIO ISRs.

Make vsc_tp_isr() run as threaded ISR instead of as hard ISR to fix this.
