Subject: [PATCH 2/2] genirq: Resend nested irq's ancestor irq

We'll set IRQS_PENDING for handle_nested_irq if it's disabled. When
it's re-enabled later on, check_irq_resend() will detect this flag
and trigger the software resend mechanism. resend_irqs() will call
desc->handle_irq() directly to process this interrupt, hence the
irq_nested_primary_handler() will be called for the nested irq which
gives us a warning.

If we need to resend a nested interrupt, we have to trace all the
way back to its ancestor and trigger ancestor's irq flow handler.
