dec12e62c0 ARM: provide an early platform initialization hook
This allows platforms to hook into the initialization early to setup
things like scheduler clocks, etc.

8ff1443c54 ARM: simplify early machine init hooks
Rather than storing each machine init hook separately, store a
pointer to the machine description record and dereference this
instead.  This pointer is only available while the init sections
are present, which is not a problem as we only use it from init
code.

521086412e ARM: 6532/1: Allow machine to specify it's own IRQ handlers at run-time
Normally different ARM platform has different way to decode the IRQ
hardware status and demultiplex to the corresponding IRQ handler.
This is highly optimized by macro irq_handler in entry-armv.S, and
each machine defines their own macro to decode the IRQ number.
However, this prevents multiple machine classes to be built into a
single kernel.

By allowing each machine to specify thier own handler, and making
function pointer 'handle_arch_irq' to point to it at run time, this
can be solved. And introduce CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER to allow both
solutions to work.

Comparing with the highly optimized macro of irq_handler, the new
function must be written with care not to lose too much performance.
And the IPI stuff on SMP is expected to move to the provided arch
IRQ handler as well.

The assembly code to invoke handle_arch_irq is optimized by Russell
King.

6451d7783b arm: remove machine_desc.io_pg_offst and .phys_io
Since we're now using addruart to establish the debug mapping, we can
remove the io_pg_offst and phys_io members of struct machine_desc.

The various declarations were removed using the following script:

  grep -rl MACHINE_START arch/arm | xargs \
  sed -i '/MACHINE_START/,/MACHINE_END/ { /\.\(phys_io\|io_pg_offst\)/d }'

[ Initial patch was from Jeremy Kerr, example script from Russell King ]

d71e3eb589 ARM: make struct machine_desc definition coherent with its comment
As mentioned in the comment right at the top, the first four fields
are directly accessed by assembly code in head.S.  Move nr_irqs so the
comment is true again.
