6c9ae009b2 irq: use per_cpu kstat_irqs
Use modern per_cpu API to increment {soft|hard}irq counters, and use
per_cpu allocation for (struct irq_desc)->kstats_irq instead of an array.

This gives better SMP/NUMA locality and saves few instructions per irq.

With small nr_cpuids values (8 for example), kstats_irq was a small array
(less than L1_CACHE_BYTES), potentially source of false sharing.

In the !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ case, remove the huge, NUMA/cache unfriendly
kstat_irqs_all[NR_IRQS][NR_CPUS] array.

Note: we still populate kstats_irq for all possible irqs in
early_irq_init().  We probably could use on-demand allocations.  (Code
included in alloc_descs()).  Problem is not all IRQS are used with a prior
alloc_descs() call.

kstat_irqs_this_cpu() is not used anymore, remove it.

78f90d91f3 genirq: Remove the now unused sparse irq leftovers
The move_irq_desc() function was only used due to the problem that the
allocator did not free the old descriptors. So the descriptors had to
be moved in create_irq_nr(). That's history.

The code would have never been able to move active interrupt
descriptors on affinity settings. That can be done in a completely
different way w/o all this horror.

Remove all of it.
