Subject: [PATCH V12 1/2] irq: Track the interrupt timings

The interrupt framework gives a lot of information about each interrupt.

It does not keep track of when those interrupts occur though.

This patch provides a mean to record the timestamp for each interrupt
occurrences in a per-CPU circular buffer to help with the prediction
of the next occurrence using a statistical model.

Each CPU can store IRQ_TIMINGS_SIZE events <irq, timestamp>, the current
value of IRQ_TIMINGS_SIZE is 32.

Each event is encoded into a single u64, where the 48 bits are used for the
timestamp and the next 16 bits are for the irq number.

A static key is introduced so when the irq prediction is switched off at
runtime, we can reduce the overhead near to zero.

It results in most of the code in internals.h for inline reason and a very
few in the new file timings.c. The latter will contain more in the next patch
which will provide the statistical model for the next event prediction.

Note this code is by default *not* compiled in the kernel.

Changelog:

   V12:
	- Changed struct irq_timings comments to kerneldoc format
	- Changed struct irq_timings name to be tabular aligned
	- Renamed remove_timings to irq_remove_timings
	- Renamed setup_timings to irq_setup_timings
	- Used macro DECLARE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE instead of raw declaration
	- Made irq_timing_decode() to return the irq number
   V11:
	- No changes
   V10:
	- No changes
   V9:
	- Changed indentation level by inverting the static key condition
	- Encoded interrupt and timestamp into a u64 variable
	- Boolean enable instead of refcount for the static key
   V8:
	- Replaced percpu field in the irqdesc by a percpu array containing the
	  timings and the associated irq. The function irq_timings_get_next()is
	  no longer needed, so it is removed
	- Removed all unused code resulting from the conversion irqdesc->percpu
	  timings storage
   V7:
	- Mentionned in the irq_timings_get_next() function description,
	  the function must be called inside a rcu read locked section
   V6:
	- Renamed handle_irq_timings to record_irq_time
	- Stored the event time instead of the interval time
	- Removed the 'timestamp' field from the timings structure
	- Moved _handle_irq_timings content inside record_irq_time
   V5:
	- Changed comment about 'deterministic' as the comment is confusing
	- Added license comment in the header
	- Replaced irq_timings_get/put by irq_timings_enable/disable
	- Moved IRQS_TIMINGS check in the handle_timings inline function
	- Dropped 'if !prev' as it is pointless
	- Stored time interval in nsec basis with u64 instead of u32
	- Removed redundant store
	- Removed the math
   V4:
	- Added a static key
	- Added more comments for irq_timings_get_next()
	- Unified some function names to be prefixed by 'irq_timings_...'
	- Fixed a rebase error
   V3:
	- Replaced ktime_get() by local_clock()
	- Shared irq are not handled
	- Simplified code by adding the timing in the irqdesc struct
	- Added a function to browse the irq timings
   V2:
	- Fixed kerneldoc comment
	- Removed data field from the struct irq timing
	- Changed the lock section comment
	- Removed semi-colon style with empty stub
	- Replaced macro by static inline
	- Fixed static functions declaration
  RFC:
	- initial posting
