usb: dwc2: host: Clear interrupts before handling them



In general it is wise to clear interrupts before processing them.  If
you don't do that, you can get:
 1. Interrupt happens
 2. You look at system state and process interrupt
 3. A new interrupt happens
 4. You clear interrupt without processing it.

This patch was actually a first attempt to fix missing device insertions
as described in (usb: dwc2: host: Fix missing device insertions) and it
did solve some of the signal bouncing problems but not all of
them (which is why I submitted the other patch).  Specifically, this
patch itself would sometimes change:
 1. hardware sees connect
 2. hardware sees disconnect
 3. hardware sees connect
 4. dwc2_port_intr() - clears connect interrupt
 5. dwc2_handle_common_intr() - calls dwc2_hcd_disconnect()

...to:
 1. hardware sees connect
 2. hardware sees disconnect
 3. dwc2_port_intr() - clears connect interrupt
 4. hardware sees connect
 5. dwc2_handle_common_intr() - calls dwc2_hcd_disconnect()

...but with different timing then sometimes we'd still miss cable
insertions.

In any case, though this patch doesn't fix any (known) problems, it
still seems wise as a general policy to clear interrupt before handling
them.

Note that for dwc2_handle_usb_port_intr(), instead of moving the clear
of PRTINT to the beginning of the function we remove it completely.  The
only way to clear PRTINT is to clear the sources that set it in the
first place.
