genirq: Add mutex to irq desc to serialize request/free_irq()



The irq_request/release_resources() callbacks ar currently invoked under
desc->lock with interrupts disabled. This is a source of problems on RT and
conceptually not required.

Add a seperate mutex to struct irq_desc which allows to serialize
request/free_irq(), which can be used to move the resource functions out of
the desc->lock held region.
