get_irqnr_preamble allows machines to take some action before entering the
get_irqnr_and_base loop. On iop we enable cp6 access.
arch_ret_to_user is added to the userspace return path to allow individual
architectures to take actions, like disabling coprocessor access, before
the final return to userspace.
Per Nicolas Pitre's note, there is no need to cp_wait on the return to user
as the latency to return is sufficient.

As reminded in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/23/26, one should use
asm/hardware.h and asm/irq.h but absent-minded devs like me tends to use
asm/arch/hardware.h and/or asm/arch/irqs.h.
This patch aims at preventing such things.
In order to make it work, I had to modify asm-arm/irq.h too so that it can
be included from assembly files.
Also, as a side effect, I had to modify some headers who were using the
asm/arch/hardware.h or asm/arch/irqs.h.

Patch from Ben Dooks
Move the decoding of the IRQ_EXT4 and above out of
the entry macro, and into an chained irq handler
as the EXTINT registers move depending on the CPU
being used.

Patch from Ben Dooks
Remove the old debug from the IRQ entry code,
update the comments on the handling of the
IRQ registers.
The message "bad interrupt offset" is removed
as it is only helpful for debugging, and can
cause printk() flooding when under load.
Make the code to deal with GPIO interrupts
faster, and use the same path to deal with
unexplained results from the IRQ registers.

arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S has contained a comment suggesting
that asm/hardware.h and asm/arch/irqs.h should be moved into the
asm/arch/entry-macro.S include. So move the includes to these
two files as required.
Add missing includes (asm/hardware.h, asm/io.h) to asm/arch/system.h
includes which use those facilities, and remove asm/io.h from
kernel/process.c.
Remove other unnecessary includes from arch/arm/kernel, arch/arm/mm
and arch/arm/mach-footbridge.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
