We plan to use hierarchy irqdomain to suppport CPU vector assignment,
interrupt remapping controller, IO-APIC controller, MSI interrupt
and hypertransport interrupt etc on x86 platforms. So extend irqdomain
interfaces to support hierarchy irqdomain.
There are already many clients of current irqdomain interfaces.
To minimize the changes, we choose to introduce new version 2 interfaces
to support hierarchy instead of extending existing irqdomain interfaces.
According to Thomas's suggestion, the most important design decision is
to build hierarchy struct irq_data to support hierarchy irqdomain, so
hierarchy irqdomain related data could be saved in struct irq_data.
With support of hierarchy irq_data, we could also support stacked
irq_chips. This is most useful in case of set_affinity().
The new hierarchy irqdomain introduces following interfaces:
1) irq_domain_alloc_irqs()/irq_domain_free_irqs(): allocate/release IRQ
and related resources.
2) __irq_domain_alloc_irqs(): a special version to support legacy IRQs.
3) irq_domain_activate_irq()/irq_domain_deactivate_irq(): program
interrupt controllers to activate/deactivate interrupt.
There are also several help functions to ease irqdomain implemenations:
1) irq_domain_get_irq_data(): get irq_data associated with a specific
irqdomain.
2) irq_domain_set_hwirq_and_chip(): save irqdomain specific data into
irq_data.
3) irq_domain_alloc_irqs_parent()/irq_domain_free_irqs_parent(): invoke
parent irqdomain's alloc/free callbacks.
We also changed irq_startup()/irq_shutdown() to invoke
irq_domain_activate_irq()/irq_domain_deactivate_irq() to program
interrupt controller when start/stop interrupts.

This updates the IRQdomain documentation a bit, by adding a more
verbose explanation to why we need this, and by adding some
extended documentation of the irq_domain_simple() usecase.

A large proportion of interrupt controllers that support legacy mappings
do so because non-DT systems need to use fixed IRQ numbers when registering
devices via buses but can otherwise use a linear mapping. The interrupt
controller itself typically is not affected by the mapping used and best
practice is to use a linear mapping where possible so drivers frequently
select at runtime depending on if a legacy range has been allocated to
them.
Standardise this behaviour by providing irq_domain_register_simple() which
will allocate a linear mapping unless a positive first_irq is provided in
which case it will fall back to a legacy mapping. This helps make best
practice for irq_domain adoption clearer.
