Some chained IRQ handlers are written to cope with primary chips of
potentially different flow types. Whether this a sensible thing to do
is a point of contention.
This patch introduces entry/exit functions for chained handlers which
infer the flow type of the primary chip as fasteoi or level-type by
checking whether or not the ->irq_eoi function pointer is present and
calling back to the primary chip as necessary. Other methods of flow
control are not considered.

Rather than storing each machine init hook separately, store a
pointer to the machine description record and dereference this
instead. This pointer is only available while the init sections
are present, which is not a problem as we only use it from init
code.

Normally different ARM platform has different way to decode the IRQ
hardware status and demultiplex to the corresponding IRQ handler.
This is highly optimized by macro irq_handler in entry-armv.S, and
each machine defines their own macro to decode the IRQ number.
However, this prevents multiple machine classes to be built into a
single kernel.
By allowing each machine to specify thier own handler, and making
function pointer 'handle_arch_irq' to point to it at run time, this
can be solved. And introduce CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER to allow both
solutions to work.
Comparing with the highly optimized macro of irq_handler, the new
function must be written with care not to lose too much performance.
And the IPI stuff on SMP is expected to move to the provided arch
IRQ handler as well.
The assembly code to invoke handle_arch_irq is optimized by Russell
King.

As per x86, align the initial column according to how many IRQs we
have. Also, provide an english explaination for the 'LOC:' and
'IPI:' lines.
