applied to tip/irq/sparseirq - thanks Yinghai, great work!

What do you think about Eric's abstraction suggestion, that irq_desc's 
structure should be hidden from all but kernel/irq/* code. I think 
that's a sane suggestion. We do it in mm/slab.c too: no external code 
knows the structure of 'struct kmem_cache'.
