Subject: [PATCH 00/12] irqdomain cleanup and refactoring

Hey folks,

This is some of the refactoring that I've been wanting to do for
irqdomains.  Lots of patches here, but the major changes are:
- eliminate the legacy mapping by replacing it with a pre-populated linear map,
- Get rid of the slow-path setup for mapping, and
- to merge the linear and tree mapping into a single domain type.

The last change still needs some investigation and review, I'm not as
confident that this is correct and it hasn't been tested much.

Milton, the last version of these patches that I posted broke one of
your powerpc machines.  Can you please retest?  I've pushed this
series out into my irqdomain/test branch (see below)

For further work, I'd like to find a way to eliminate the nomap revmap
too so I can get rid of the irqdomain type entirely and simplify the
code even further.  I've not applied many brain cells towards doing
this yet though.  This is an area for further research.

Also, Paul tells me that there are some platforms that want to use
something like a linear mapping, but there are large holes in the
ranges of hwirq numbers which is a little wasteful of memory.  Another
area of investigation is to figure out how to be more memory-efficient
here without slowing down the linear revmap path.

g.
