Keith reported an issue with vector space exhaustion on a server machine
which is caused by the i40e driver allocating 168 MSI interrupts when the
driver is initialized, even when most of these interrupts are not used at
all.
The x86 vector allocation code tries to avoid the immediate allocation with
the reservation mode, but the card uses MSI and does not support MSI entry
masking, which prevents reservation mode and requires immediate vector
allocation.
The matrix allocator is a bit naive and prefers the first CPU in the
cpumask which describes the possible target CPUs for an allocation. That
results in allocating all 168 vectors on CPU0 which later causes vector
space exhaustion when the NVMe driver tries to allocate managed interrupts
on each CPU for the per CPU queues.
Avoid this by finding the CPU which has the lowest vector allocation count
to spread out the non managed interrupt accross the possible target CPUs.

The previous commit which made the operator precedence in
irq_matrix_available() explicit made the implicit brokenness explicitely
wrong. It was wrong in the original commit already. The overworked
maintainer did not notice it either when merging the patch.
Replace the confusing '?' construct by a simple and obvious if ().

Noticed with a Clang build. This improves the readability of the ?:
expression, as it has lower precedence than the - expression. Show
explicitly that - is evaluated first.

Implement the infrastructure for a simple bitmap based allocator, which
will replace the x86 vector allocator. It's in the core code as other
architectures might be able to reuse/extend it. For now it only implements
allocations for single CPUs, but it's simple to add multi CPU allocation
support if required.
The concept is rather simple:
Global information:
system_vector bitmap
global accounting
PerCPU information:
allocation bitmap
managed allocation bitmap
local accounting
The system vector bitmap is used to exclude vectors system wide from the
allocation space.
The allocation bitmap is used to keep track of per cpu used vectors.
The managed allocation bitmap is used to reserve vectors for managed
interrupts.
When a regular (non managed) interrupt allocation happens then the
following rule applies:
tmpmap = system_map | alloc_map | managed_map
find_zero_bit(tmpmap)
Oring the bitmaps together gives the real available space. The same rule
applies for reserving a managed interrupt vector. But contrary to the
regular interrupts the reservation only marks the bit in the managed map
and therefor excludes it from the regular allocations. The managed map is
only cleaned out when the a managed interrupt is completely released and it
stays alive accross CPU offline/online operations.
For managed interrupt allocations the rule is:
tmpmap = managed_map & ~alloc_map
find_first_bit(tmpmap)
This returns the first bit which is in the managed map, but not yet
allocated in the allocation map. The allocation marks it in the allocation
map and hands it back to the caller for use.
The rest of the code are helper functions to handle the various
requirements and the accounting which are necessary to replace the x86
vector allocation code. The result is a single patch as the evolution of
this infrastructure cannot be represented in bits and pieces.
