request_irq() is preferred over setup_irq(). Invocations of setup_irq()
occur after memory allocators are ready.

Per tglx[1], setup_irq() existed in olden days when allocators were not
ready by the time early interrupts were initialized.

Hence replace setup_irq() by request_irq().

Hi powerpc maintainers,

if okay w/ this change, please consider taking it thr' your tree, else please
let me know.

Regards
afzal

Link to v2 & v1,
[v2] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/cover.1582471508.git.afzal.mohd.ma@gmail.com
[v1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/cover.1581478323.git.afzal.mohd.ma@gmail.com

v3:
 * Split out from tree wide series, as Thomas suggested to get it thr'
	respective maintainers
 * Modify pr_err displayed in case of error
 * Re-arrange code & choose pr_err args as required to improve readability
 * Remove irrelevant parts from commit message & improve
 
v2:
 * Replace pr_err("request_irq() on %s failed" by
           pr_err("%s: request_irq() failed"
 * Commit message massage

	request_irq() can fail due to sanity check, which is not done in
	setup_irq()
v3:
 * Split out from tree wide series, as Thomas suggested to get it thr'

 * Modify pr_err displayed in case of error
 * Re-arrange code & choose pr_err args as required to improve readability
 * Remove irrelevant parts from commit message & improve

This patch is seen in next-test branch for last 4-5 days, i don't know
exactly how powerpc workflow happens, so a question - this would be
appear in linux-next soon right ? (for last 4-5 days i had been daily
checking -next, but not appearing there).

Sorry for the query for this trivial patch, i am asking because Thomas
had mentioned [1] to get setup_irq() cleanup thr' respective
maintainers (earlier it was part of tree-wide series), check -next after
-rc6 & resubmit ignored ones to him, this patch is neither in -next,
neither ignored, so i am at a loss what to do :(

And i would prefer to let each patch go thr' respective maintainers so
that only least patches has to be sent to Thomas. Bigger problem is that
core removal patch of setup_irq() can be sent to him only after making
sure that it's tree-wide usage has been removed.

Regards
afzal
