Make it explicit the interrupt masking supported
by a gievn interrupt handler. Patch correspondingly
extends the MASKABLE_* macros with an addition's parameter.
"bitmask" parameter is passed to SOFTEN_TEST macro to decide
on masking the interrupt.

Is __EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1 now for maskable exceptions, and EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1
for unmaskable? Does it make sense to rename __EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1 to
MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1? Reducing the mystery underscores in this file would
be nice!

Yes. That is true. Will make the changes.

This worked out nicely with mask bit being passed in by the exception handlers.
Very neat.

Thanks.
