Add irq domain support to irq generic-chip. This enables users of
generic-chip to support dynamic irq assignment needed for DT interrupt
binding. Users must be converted to use irq_data.hwirq for determining
local interrupt numbers rather than using the Linux irq number.

irq_base is kept for now as there are a few users of it. Once they
are converted to use the irq domain, it can be removed.

Sorry, I have to take that tag back after I correct my test setup.
It does not work for imx5 TZIC case, because the following change
I suggested before is missed.

                d->domain = domain;
-               d->hwirq = hwirq;
+               d->hwirq = hwirq - domain->hwirq_base;
This is a problem. It entirely defeats the point of hwirq_base and it
would break the GIC. We need to fix this in the generic irq chip.
Actually I do not quite understand why we need to make the following
change all over generic-chip.c.

-       u32 mask = 1 << (d->irq - gc->irq_base);
+       u32 mask = 1 << d->hwirq;

Though d->irq is the Linux irq number, "d->irq - gc->irq_base" is
really just what we need here.
