Subject: [PATCH V2 05/19] irqchip: crossbar: Change allocation logic by reversing search for free irqs

From: Nishanth Menon <nm@...com>

Reverse the search algorithm to ensure that address mapping and IRQ
allocation logics are proper. This can open up new bugs which are
easily fixable rather than wait till allocation logic approaches
the limit to find new bugs.
