      PCI, x86: Implement pcibios_alloc_irq() and pcibios_free_irq()

      To support IOAPIC hotplug, we need to allocate PCI IRQ resources on
demand
      and free them when not used anymore.

      Implement pcibios_alloc_irq() and pcibios_free_irq() to dynamically
      allocate and free PCI IRQs.

      Remove mp_should_keep_irq(), which is no longer used.

I tried to do a kexec shut-down with the first version of your patch:

1.7.10.4

but I experience identical kexec shutdown and restart problems as with the second version of your patch, as seen here:

http://www.users.on.net/~arthur.marsh/20150910541.jpg

the original commit 991de2e59090e55c65a7f59a049142e3c480f7bd quoted above seems to have not only lead to start-up problems unless irqpoll was enabled but also lead to kexec shutdown/restart problems.

I'm not sure what the solution is but it is good to continue to allow kexec reboots to work.

Arthur.
