genirq: Provide generic hwirq allocation facility

Not really the solution to the problem, but at least it confines the
mess in the core code and allows to get rid of the create/destroy_irq
variants from hell, i.e. 3 implementations with different semantics
plus the x86 specific variants __create_irqs and create_irq_nr
which have been invented in another circle of hell.

x86 : x86 should be converted to irq domains and I'm deliberately
      making it impossible to do the multi-vector MSI support by
      adding more crap to the current mess. It's not that hard to do
      and I'm really tired of the trainwrecks which have been invented
      by baindaid engineering so far. Any attempt to do multi-vector
      MSI or ioapic hotplug without converting to irq domains is NAKed
      hereby.

tile: Might use irq domains as well, but it has a very limited
      interrupt space, so handling it via this functionality might be
      the right thing to do even in the long run.

ia64: That's an hopeless case, as I doubt that anyone has the stomach
      to rewrite the homebrewn dynamic allocation facilities. I stared
      at it for a couple of hours and gave up. The create/destroy_irq
      mess could be made private to itanic right away if there
      wouldn't be the iommu/dmar driver being shared with x86. So to
      do that I'm going to add a separate ia64 specific implementation
      later in order not to deep-six itanic right away.
