Impact: preserve user-modified affinities on interrupts

Kumar Galak noticed that commit
18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 (genirq: Expose default irq
affinity mask (take 3))

overrides an already set affinity setting across a free /
request_irq(). Happens e.g. with ifdown/ifup of a network device.

Change the logic to mark the affinities as set and keep them
intact. This also fixes the unlocked access to irq_desc in
irq_select_affinity() when called from irq_affinity_proc_write()

<title>irq: replace loop with nr_irqs with for_each_irq_desc</title>

There are a handful of loops that go from 0 to nr_irqs and use
get_irq_desc() on them. These would allocate all the irq_desc
entries, regardless of the need for them.

Use the smarter for_each_irq_desc() iterator that will only iterate
over the present ones.

v2: make sure arch without GENERIC_HARDIRQS work too

<title>genirq: record trigger type</title>

Genirq hasn't previously recorded the trigger type used by any given IRQ,
although some irq_chip support has done so.  That data can be useful when
troubleshooting.  This patch records it in the relevant irq_desc.status
bits, and improves consistency between the two driver-visible calls
affected:

 - Make set_irq_type() usage match request_irq() usage:
    * IRQ_TYPE_NONE should be a NOP; succeed, so irq_chip methods
      won't have to handle that case any more (many do it wrong).
    * IRQ_TYPE_PROBE is ignored; any buggy out-of-tree callers
      might need to switch over to the real IRQ probing code.
    * emit the same diagnostics (from shared utility code)

 - Their kerneldoc now reflects usage:
    * request_irq() flags include IRQF_TRIGGER_* to specify
      active edge(s)/level ... docs previously omitted that
    * set_irq_type() is declared in &lt;linux/irq.h&gt; so callers
      should use the (bit-equivalent) IRQ_TYPE_* symbols there

Also: adds a warning about shared IRQs that don't end up using the
requested trigger mode; and fix an unrelated "sparse" warning.

One frequent sign of IRQ handling bugs is the appearance of unexpected
vectors.  Print out all the IRQ state in that case.  We dont want this patch
upstream, but it is useful during initial testing.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
