genirq: Add a new generic IPI reservation code to irq core
Add a generic mechanism to dynamically allocate an IPI. Depending on the underlying implementation this creates either a single Linux irq or a consective range of Linux irqs. The Linux irq is used later to send IPIs to other CPUs. [ tglx: Massaged the code and removed the 'consecutive mask' restriction for the single IRQ case ] Signed-off-by: Qais Yousef <qais.yousef@imgtec.com> Cc: <jason@lakedaemon.net> Cc: <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Cc: <jiang.liu@linux.intel.com> Cc: <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: <linux-mips@linux-mips.org> Cc: <lisa.parratt@imgtec.com> Cc: Qais Yousef <qsyousef@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1449580830-23652-9-git-send-email-qais.yousef@imgtec.com Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
