dinghai: add async event queue for firmware notifications

This commit adds an event queue table and an async event queue for firmware
notifications. The queue claims an MSI-X vector from the async pool and maps
firmware events to notifier chains.

[Severity: Medium]
Does this error path leak the modern configuration MMIO mappings?

The zxdh_pf_modern_cfg_init() function successfully maps several capabilities.
If a subsequent step fails (such as zxdh_pf_eq_table_init() or other device
initialization checks), the code jumps to err_eq_table and falls through to
err_cfg_init. However, this label only calls zxdh_pf_pci_close() and misses
a call to zxdh_pf_modern_cfg_uninit(), leaving the memory mapped.

[Severity: High]
Is there a risk of an out-of-bounds MMIO read here?

The device blindly maps BAR 0 based on pci_resource_len() during
zxdh_pf_pci_init(). If the hardware or an emulated environment exposes a
truncated BAR 0 length that is smaller than 0x2804 bytes, reading from
ZXDH_BAR_MSG_SUBCHAN_RECV (offset 0x2800) could exceed the mapped boundaries
and cause a page fault or oops.

[Severity: High]
Could this lead to an invalid pointer dereference on the cleanup path?

If zxdh_pf_async_irq_request() fails (e.g., due to memory exhaustion), it
returns an error pointer like ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM). This error pointer is
assigned to eq->irq but is not cleared to NULL before jumping to unlock.

When the error propagates, zxdh_pf_probe() jumps to the err_eq_table label
and calls zxdh_pf_eq_table_destroy().

Because eq->irq contains an error pointer, the cleanup check in
zxdh_pf_eq_table_destroy():

    if (eq->irq) {
        zxdh_irq_detach_nb(eq->irq, &eq->irq_nb);
        ...

will evaluate to true, and zxdh_irq_detach_nb() will attempt to dereference
the error pointer, causing a kernel panic.
