      genirq: Add irq_domain-aware core IRQ handler · 76ba59f8

Calling irq_find_mapping from outside a irq_{enter,exit} section is
unsafe and produces ugly messages if CONFIG_PROVE_RCU is enabled:
If coming from the idle state, the rcu_read_lock call in irq_find_mapping
will generate an unpleasant warning:

===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
3.16.0-rc1+ #135 Not tainted
-------------------------------
include/linux/rcupdate.h:871 rcu_read_lock() used illegally while idle!

other info that might help us debug this:

RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
1 lock held by swapper/0/0:
 #0:  (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: [<ffffffc00010206c>]
irq_find_mapping+0x4c/0x198

As this issue is fairly widespread and involves at least three
different architectures, a possible solution is to add a new
handle_domain_irq entry point into the generic IRQ code that
the interrupt controller code can call.

This new function takes an irq_domain, and calls into irq_find_domain
inside the irq_{enter,exit} block. An additional "lookup" parameter is
used to allow non-domain architecture code to be replaced by this as well.

Interrupt controllers can then be updated to use the new mechanism.

This code is sitting behind a new CONFIG_HANDLE_DOMAIN_IRQ, as not all
architectures implement set_irq_regs (yes, mn10300, I'm looking at you...).
