Subject: [PATCH] x86, uv: Fix uv with destroy_irq()


Russ found that:

| There is a regression that is causing a NULL pointer dereference
| in free_irte when shutting down xpc.  git bisect narrowed it down
| to git commit d585d060b42bd36f6f0b23ff327d3b91f80c7139, which
| changed free_irte().  Reverse applying the patch fixes the problem.

and he bisected to

| commit d585d060b42bd36f6f0b23ff327d3b91f80c7139

|   intr_remap: Simplify the code further
|
|   Having irq_2_iommu in struct irq_cfg allows further simplifications.

We need to use irq_mapped() for every irq instead of intr_remapping_enabled
overall
