      irq: add irq_domain translation infrastructure · 08a543ad
      Grant Likely authored
      This patch adds irq_domain infrastructure for translating from
      hardware irq numbers to linux irqs.  This is particularly important
      for architectures adding device tree support because the current
      implementation (excluding PowerPC and SPARC) cannot handle
      translation for more than a single interrupt controller.  irq_domain
      supports device tree translation for any number of interrupt
      controllers.
      
      This patch converts x86, Microblaze, ARM and MIPS to use irq_domain
      for device tree irq translation.  x86 is untested beyond compiling it,
      irq_domain is enabled for MIPS and Microblaze, but the old behaviour is
      preserved until the core code is modified to actually register an
      irq_domain yet.  On ARM it works and is required for much of the new
      ARM device tree board support.
      
      PowerPC has /not/ been converted to use this new infrastructure.  It
      is still missing some features before it can replace the virq
      infrastructure already in powerpc (see documentation on
      irq_domain_map/unmap for details).  Followup patches will add the
      missing pieces and migrate PowerPC to use irq_domain.
      
      SPARC has its own method of managing interrupts from the device tree
      and is unaffected by this change.
