[PATCH 02/16] arm: add set_handle_irq() to register the parent IRQ controller handler function

In order to allow irqchip drivers to register their IRQ handling
function as the parent IRQ controller handler function, we provide a
convenience function. This will avoid poking directly into the global
handle_arch_irq variable, and ensures that the user gets warned if
we're trying to register a second IRQ controller as the parent one.

Suggested by Arnd Bergmann.

I wonder if we should just return silently without warning and rely on
the top level controller being initialized 1st. For the DT case, this is
guaranteed. In the non-DT case, we don't really know if we are the
top-level controller at least in a consistent way. AFAIK, it happens
that the 1st instance of the VIC or GIC is always the top level and we
can use that (i.e. gic_nr == 0). However, theoretically you could have a
VIC connected to a top-level GIC or even vice-versa.
