We only have a couple of users for airq_iv:

virtio_ccw.c: 2K bits

pci with floating IRQs: <= 2K (for the per-function bit vectors)
                        1..4K (for the summary bit vector)

pci with CPU directed IRQs: 2K (for the per-CPU bit vectors)
                            1..nr_cpu (for the summary bit vector)


The options are:
* page allocations for everything
* dma_pool for AIRQ_IV_CACHELINE ,gen_pool for others
* dma_pool for everything

I think we should do option 3 and use a dma_pool with cachesize
alignment for everything (as a prerequisite we have to limit
config PCI_NR_FUNCTIONS to 2K - but that is not a real constraint).
