Impact: build fix
lguest can be built as a module and makes use of this new symbol:
ERROR: "vector_used_by_percpu_irq" [drivers/lguest/lg.ko] undefined!
export it.

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.

Fix off-by-one in for_each_irq_desc_reverse().
Impact is near zero in practice, because nothing substantial wants to
iterate down to IRQ#0 - but fix it nevertheless.

show_interrupts() and proc helpers are basically the same for
32 and 64 bit. Move them to a shared source file.
