Convert the gic interrupt controller to use irq domains in preparation
for device-tree binding and MULTI_IRQ. This allows for translation between
GIC interrupt IDs and Linux irq numbers.

The meaning of irq_offset has changed. It now is just the number of skipped
GIC interrupt IDs for the controller. It will be 16 for primary GIC and 32
for secondary GICs.

This can probably change simply to d->hwirq if irq_offset is
eliminated as I describe below.

With the switch to irq_domain, there should no longer be any need for
a ~31 mask on the irq_start number.  Yes, you'll want to make sure
that it doesn't allocate below irq 16, but the driver should
completely use the irq_domain to manage the mapping from linux-irq
number to hwirq number.  The ~31 mask appears to have been an
optimization to quickly calculate hwirq number from the linux one, but
that value is now found in irq_data->hwirq.

irq_offset could almost be dropped entirely outside of probe because
it no longer matters.  Instead, populate the to_irq() hook so that the
hwirq value gets set correctly from the outset.

It would be better in general to have a consistent view of what the
hwirq number means regardless of if it is a root GIC.
