[PATCH v2] irqchip: omap-intc: add support for spurious irq handling

[Sekhar Nori <nsekhar@ti.com>]

Under some conditions, irq sorting procedure used
by INTC can go wrong resulting in a spurious irq
getting reported.

If this condition is not handled, it results in
endless stream of:

    unexpected IRQ trap at vector 00

messages from ack_bad_irq()

Handle the spurious interrupt condition in omap-intc
driver to prevent this.

v2: increment error irq counter, use pr_err_once,
    add a comment on tips to debug spurious irq
    condition.

This patch results in a checkpatch warning about
extern definition of irq_err_count, but looks like
thats the prevalent method of accessing that counter.
