With the recent creation of the drivers/irqchip/ directory, it is
desirable to move irq controller drivers here. At the moment, the only
driver here is irq-bcm2835, the driver for the irq controller found in
the ARM BCM2835 SoC, present in Rasberry Pi systems. This irq
controller driver was exporting its initialization function and its
irq handling function through a header file in
<linux/irqchip/bcm2835.h>.
When proposing to also move another irq controller driver in
drivers/irqchip, Rob Herring raised the very valid point that moving
things to drivers/irqchip was good in order to remove more stuff from
arch/arm, but if it means adding gazillions of headers files in
include/linux/irqchip/, it would not be very nice.
So, upon the suggestion of Rob Herring and Arnd Bergmann, this commit
introduces a small infrastructure that defines a central
irqchip_init() function in drivers/irqchip/irqchip.c, which is meant
to be called as the ->init_irq() callback of ARM platforms. This
function calls of_irq_init() with an array of match strings and init
functions generated from a special linker section.
Note that the irq controller driver initialization function is
responsible for setting the global handle_arch_irq() variable, so that
ARM platforms no longer have to define the ->handle_irq field in their
DT_MACHINE structure.
A global header, <linux/irqchip.h> is also added to expose the single
irqchip_init() function to the reset of the kernel.
A further commit moves the BCM2835 irq controller driver to this new
small infrastructure, therefore removing the include/linux/irqchip/
directory.

This branch contains device-tree updates for the SPEAr platform.
They had dependencies on earlier branches from this merge window,
which is why they were broken out in a separate branch.

This moves the Versatile FPGA interrupt controller driver, used in
the Integrator/AP, Integrator/CP and some Versatile boards, out
of arch/arm/plat-versatile and down to drivers/irqchip where we
have consensus that such drivers belong. The header file is
consequently moved to <linux/platform_data/irq-versatile-fpga.h>.

The BCM2835 contains a custom interrupt controller, which supports 72
interrupt sources using a 2-level register scheme. The interrupt
controller, or the HW block containing it, is referred to occasionally
as "armctrl" in the SoC documentation, hence the symbol naming in the
code.
This patch was extracted from git://github.com/lp0/linux.git branch
rpi-split as of 2012/09/08, and modified as follows:
* s/bcm2708/bcm2835/.
* Modified device tree vendor prefix.
* Moved implementation to drivers/irchip/.
* Added devicetree documentation, and hence removed list of IRQs from
bcm2835.dtsi.
* Changed shift in MAKE_HWIRQ() and HWIRQ_BANK() from 8 to 5 to reduce
the size of the hwirq space, and pass the total size of the hwirq space
to irq_domain_add_linear(), rather than just the number of valid hwirqs;
the two are different due to the hwirq space being sparse.
* Added the interrupt controller DT node to the top-level of the DT,
rather than nesting it inside a /axi node. Hence, changed the reg value
since /axi had a ranges property. This seems simpler to me, but I'm not
sure if everyone will like this change or not.
* Don't set struct irq_domain_ops.map = irq_domain_simple_map, hence
removing the need to patch include/linux/irqdomain.h or
kernel/irq/irqdomain.c.
* Simplified armctrl_of_init() using of_iomap().
* Removed unused IS_VALID_BANK()/IS_VALID_IRQ() macros.
* Renamed armctrl_handle_irq() to prevent possible symbol clashes.
* Made armctrl_of_init() static.
* Removed comment "Each bank is registered as a separate interrupt
controller" since this is no longer true.
* Removed FSF address from license header.
* Added my name to copyright header.
