irq: add remove_irq() for freeing of setup_irq() irqs

Browse Source 
Impact: add new API

This patch adds a remove_irq() function for releasing
interrupts requested with setup_irq().

Without this patch we have no way of releasing such
interrupts since free_irq() today tries to kfree()
the irqaction passed with setup_irq().
