Commit 3c7ac40d7322 ("scsi: ufs: core: Delegate the interrupt service
routine to a threaded IRQ handler") introduced a regression where
the UFS interrupt status register (IS) was not cleared in
ufshcd_intr() when operating in MCQ mode. As a result, the IS register
remained uncleared.

This led to a persistent issue during UIC interrupts:
ufshcd_is_auto_hibern8_error() consistently returned true because the
UFSHCD_UIC_HIBERN8_MASK bit was set, while the active command was
neither UIC_CMD_DME_HIBER_ENTER nor UIC_CMD_DME_HIBER_EXIT. This
caused continuous auto hibern8 enter errors and device failed to boot.

To fix this, the patch ensures that the interrupt status register is
properly cleared in the ufshcd_intr() function for both MCQ mode with
ESI enabled.
