Subject: [PATCH 03/25] add dyn_array support

could have crazy big arrays and allocate them in bootmem at init stage.
also also to allocate array according to size we need to use to avoid wasting
memory
use CONFIG_HAVE_DYN_ARRAY to enable it or not

usage:

|static struct irq_desc irq_desc_init __initdata = {
|       .status = IRQ_DISABLED,
|       .chip = &no_irq_chip,
|       .handle_irq = handle_bad_irq,
|       .depth = 1,
|       .lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(irq_desc->lock),
|#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
|       .affinity = CPU_MASK_ALL
|#endif
|};
|
|static void __init init_work(void *data)
|{
|       struct dyn_array *da = data;
|       struct  irq_desc *desc;
|       int i;
|
|       desc = *da->name;
|
|       for (i = 0; i < *da->nr; i++)
|               memcpy(&desc[i], &irq_desc_init, sizeof(struct irq_desc));
|}
|
|struct irq_desc *irq_desc;
|DEFINE_DYN_ARRAY(irq_desc, sizeof(struct irq_desc), nr_irqs, PAGE_SIZE, init_work);

after pre_alloc_dyn_array() after setup_arch(), that array is ready to use
in this way could replace irq_desc[NR_IRQS] array with dyn_array irq_desc[nr_irqs]
