Subject: [PATCH 8/8] irq: Do not free unallocated irq descriptors

Hot-added interrupt controllers can reserve a range of interrupt
numbers, but only allocate some of them. To simplify the release on
hot-remove allow them to iterate over the reserved range, let the
free_desc() code return early when the descriptor does not exist

-v2: changelog from tglx
