With the msi support comes a new concept in irq handling, irqs that are created dynamically at run time. Currently the msi code allocates irqs backwards. First it allocates a platform dependent routing value for an interrupt the ``vector'' and then it figures out from the vector which irq you are on. This msi backwards allocator suffers from two basic problems. The allocator suffers because it is trying to do something that is architecture specific in a generic way making it brittle, inflexible, and tied to tightly to the architecture implementation. The alloctor also suffers from it's very backwards nature as it has tied things together that should have no dependencies. To solve the basic dynamic irq allocation problem two new architecture specific functions are added: create_irq and destroy_irq. create_irq takes no input and returns an unused irq number, that won't be reused until it is returned to the free poll with destroy_irq. The irq then can be used for any purpose although the only initial consumer is the msi code. destroy_irq takes an irq number allocated with create_irq and returns it to the free pool. Making this functionality per architecture increases the simplicity of the irq allocation code and increases it's flexibility. dynamic_irq_init() and dynamic_irq_cleanup() are added to automate the irq_desc initializtion that should happen for dynamic irqs.
