[PATCH 0/9] MIPS: Allow shared IRQ for timer & perf counter

[James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com>]

The main purpose of this patchset is to enable the MIPS CPU IRQ lines to
be shared by the timer handler and performance counter handlers on MIPS
r2+ cores, i.e. using IRQF_SHARED instead of having the timer handler
directly call the perf counter handler.

This will allow the handling of local IRQs to scale to a 3rd IRQ for the
fast debug channel (FDC), which would get pretty messy using calls
between handlers as each interrupt can be arbitrarily routed to
different or shared IRQ lines since MIPS r2.

Pre-r2 IRQF_SHARED cannot be used as we aren't guaranteed to have
individual local interrupt pending bits in CP0_Cause, so the interrupt
conditions must be checked in the right order by the cevt-r4k handler.


Patches 1-5 are minor refactors for stuff noticed along the way and
shouldn't have any functional change by themselves.

Patches 6-8 convert each of the timer and perf handlers to use
compatible IRQ flags, and finally patch 9 makes the switch so that the
interrupt line numbers may be the same on r2.
