genirq/irqdomain: Allow partial trimming of irq_data hierarchy
It appears that some HW is ugly enough that not all the interrupts connected to a particular interrupt controller end up with the same hierarchy depth (some of them are terminated early). This leaves the irqchip hacker with only two choices, both equally bad: - create discrete domain chains, one for each "hierarchy depth", which is very hard to maintain - create fake hierarchy levels for the shallow paths, leading to all kind of problems (what are the safe hwirq values for these fake levels?) Implement the ability to cut short a single interrupt hierarchy from a level marked as being disconnected by using the new irq_domain_disconnect_hierarchy() helper. The irqdomain allocation code will then perform the trimming Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
