Parallel probing (e.g. due to asynchronous probing) of devices that
share interrupts can currently result in two mappings for the same
hardware interrupt to be created.

This series fixes this mapping race and clean up the irqdomain locking
so that in the end the global irq_domain_mutex is only used for managing
the likewise global irq_domain_list, while domain operations (e.g.
IRQ allocations) use per-domain (hierarchy) locking.
Tested-by: Hsin-Yi Wang <redacted>

The series solves a race issue when having non-populated 2nd source
components that share the same irq on ARM devices:
Previously we would see
[    0.476357] irq: type mismatch, failed to map hwirq-11 for pinctrl@10005000!
and the component failed to probe.
Thanks again for testing. I just sent a v4 adding a couple of clarifying
comments to the final patch.

Johan
