Fix regression. Make hot unlplug of CPU0 work again.

From: Tony Breeds <hidden>
Date: 2007-10-05 03:52:41

Early in the 2.6.23 cycle we broke the ability to offline cpu0
(7ccb4a662462616f6be5053e26b79580e02f1529).  This patch fixes that by
ensuring that the (xics)  default irq server, will not be 0 when taking
cpu0 offline.

Also catches a use of irq, when virq should be used (I think that the
last one).

Unless there is a problem with this patch, it'd be nice to get it into
2.6.23 :)

Hmm testing, this on a JS21 shows that it doesn't work.  I guess I'll go
back to the drawing board.

Maybe we should revert the original patch and go back to the drawing
board for 2.6.24? Making sure we address the initial problem (which was
exposed by kexec I think) and that we don't break cpu hotplug on the
way.

Reviewing the first patch, xics_set_affinity no longer looks at the
cpu_mask arg, instead get_irq_server reads it from the irq descriptor.

On top of tonys patch (13926)

I don't have a system to test hotplug, so this is only compile tested.

A more complete fix might be to pass the cpu_mask struct to get_irq_server,
but kernel/irq/manage.c currently sets the descriptor first.

This doesn't fix the problem for me.  

If I offline CPU0, then online it again, it's fine, but doing the same
for CPU1 kills the machine.

WARNING? It's not like the user can do anything about it.
