0b8f1efad3 sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes
Impact: new feature

Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.

To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.

When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).

This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

497c9a195d x86: make 32bit support per_cpu vector
so we can merge io_apic_32.c and io_apic_64.c

v2: Use cpu_online_map as target cpus for bigsmp, just like 64-bit is doing.

Also remove some unused TARGET_CPUS macro.

v3: need to check if desc is null in smp_irq_move_cleanup

also migration needs to reset vector too, so copy __target_IO_APIC_irq
from 64bit.

(the duplication will go away once the two files are unified.)

199751d715 x86: make 32 bit to use sparse_irq
but actually irq still needs to be less than NR_IRQS, because
interrupt[NR_IRQS] in entry.S.

need to enable per_cpu vector...

0799e432ac x86: use nr_irqs
also add first_free_entry and pin_map_size, which were NR_IRQS derived
constants.

2ae111cdd8 x86: apic interrupts - move assignments to irqinit_32.c, v2
64bit mode APIC interrupt handlers are set within irqinit_64.c.
Lets do tha same for 32bit mode which would help in furter code merging.

f20b11e716 x86: rename the i8259_32/64.c leftovers to initirq_32/64.c
The leftovers of the i8259 unification have nothing to do with i8259
at all. They contain interrupt init code and the i8259_xx name is just
misleading now.

Rename them to initirq_32/64.c
