[Patch V2 0/9] Refine generic/PCI MSI irqodmian interfaces

This patch set is based on tip/irq/irqdomain and tries to refine
interfaces to support irqdomain for generic MSI and PCI MSI.

Patch 1 is just minor fixes for tip/irq/irqdomain.

Patch 2-4 introduce mechanisms to help reduce irqdomain users' code size.
When converting XEN to use hierarchy irqdomain, I found the code size
increases about 100 lines. So we still need helpers to reduce code size.

Patch 5 introduces some helpers to hide struct msi_desc implementation
details, so later we could move msi_list from struct pci_dev into
struct device to enable generic MSI support.

Patch 6 introduces msi_domain_{alloc|free}_irqs() which generalize
pci_msi_domain_alloc_irqs() to support generic MSI.

Patch 7 introduces default data structures and callback implementations
to support msi_domain_alloc_irqs(), so reduce burden on generic MSI
users.

Patch 8 converts PCI MSI to use generic MSI interfaces, and also
implement default callbacks for PCI MSI.

Patch 9 introduces a mechanism to replace arch_setup_msi_irq()/
arch_setup_msi_irqs()/arch_teardown_msi_irq()/arch_teardown_msi_irqs().

With this patch set applied, the generic MSI and PCI MSI interfaces
are much easier to use. For extreme case, you only need to define
a "struct msi_domain_info" and don't need to implement any callbacks,
just using the default callbacks is OK:)

This patch set is also a preparation for:
1) Kill all weak functions in drivers/pci/msi.c
2) Implement support for non-PCI-compliant MSI device

It has been tested on x86 platforms, comments are welcomed!

V1->V2:
1) Fix bugs reported by Marc
2) Rename MSI_FLAG_USE_DEF_OPS as MSI_FLAG_USE_DEF_DOM_OPS
3) Add support of MSI_FLAG_USE_DEF_CHIP_OPS
4) Include linxu/irqhandler.h to use irq_flow_handler_t instead of "void *"
5) Change iterfaces to pass in "nvect" to msi_domain_ops.msi_prepare()
6) Add new interfaces/flags to help reduce irqdomain users' code size
