CVE-2023-53067
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

LoongArch: Only call get_timer_irq() once in constant_clockevent_init()

Under CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y, we can see
the following messages on LoongArch, this is because using might_sleep()
in preemption disable context.

Here are the complete call chains:

smpboot_entry()
  start_secondary()
    constant_clockevent_init()
      get_timer_irq()
        irq_find_matching_fwnode()
          irq_find_matching_fwspec()
            mutex_lock()
              might_sleep()
                __might_sleep()
                  __might_resched()

In order to avoid the above issue, we should break the call chains,
using timer_irq_installed variable as check condition to only call
get_timer_irq() once in constant_clockevent_init() is a simple and
proper way.
