The IRQF_DISABLED flag is a NOOP and has been scheduled for removal
since Linux v2.6.36 by commit 6932bf37be ("genirq: Remove
IRQF_DISABLED from core code").
According to commit e58aa3d2d0 ("genirq: Run irq handlers with
interrupts disabled"), running IRQ handlers with interrupts
enabled can cause stack overflows when the interrupt line of the
issuing device is still active.
This patch ends the grace period for IRQF_DISABLED (i.e.,
SA_INTERRUPT in older versions of Linux) and removes the
definition and all remaining usages of this flag.
There's still a few non-functional references left in the kernel
source:
- The bigger hunk in Documentation/scsi/ncr53c8xx.txt is removed entirely
as IRQF_DISABLED is gone now; the usage in older kernel versions
(including the old SA_INTERRUPT flag) should be discouraged. The
trouble of using IRQF_SHARED is a general problem and not specific to
any driver.
- I left the reference in Documentation/PCI/MSI-HOWTO.txt untouched since
it has already been removed in linux-next.
- All remaining references are changelogs that I suggest to keep.

When booting omap3 in device tree mode, we're currently getting
the following errors:
omap_l3_smx omap_l3_smx.0: couldn't request debug irq
omap_l3_smx: probe of omap_l3_smx.0 failed with error -22
This is because we don't have handling in the driver for the
compatible property and instead assume platform data being
passed.
Note that this binding is already documented, and implemented
for the related omap_l3_noc driver for omap4 and later. Looks
like the binding somehow never got never implemented for this
omap_l3_smx driver though.
Let's also remove __exit_p to allow binding and unbinding
of the driver while at it.

OMAP interconnect drivers are used for the interconnect error handling.
Since they are bus driver, lets move it to newly created drivers/bus.
