Alpha interrupt masking is controlled by the PAL IPL value, not by the full processor status word. Make arch_local_save_flags() return the current IPL directly, and make arch_local_irq_restore() and arch_irqs_disabled_flags() treat their argument as IPL state. Mask the low IPL bits in the restore and test helpers so callers which still pass a saved PS value continue to behave as expected. This prepares the irqflags helpers for lockdep IRQ-state tracking, where the saved flags value is used to determine whether hard IRQs are enabled or disabled.
