genirq: Handle managed irqs gracefully in irq_startup()



Affinity managed interrupts should keep their assigned affinity accross CPU
hotplug. To avoid magic hackery in device drivers, the core code shall
manage them transparently and set these interrupts into a managed shutdown
state when the last CPU of the assigned affinity mask goes offline. The
interrupt will be restarted when one of the CPUs in the assigned affinity
mask comes back online.

Add the necessary logic to irq_startup(). If an interrupt is requested and
started up, the code checks whether it is affinity managed and if so, it
checks whether a CPU in the interrupts affinity mask is online. If not, it
puts the interrupt into managed shutdown state.
