    genirq/matrix: Prevent allocation counter corruption
    
    [ Upstream commit c93a5e20c3c2dabef8ea360a3d3f18c6f68233ab ]
    
    When irq_matrix_free() is called for an unallocated vector the
    managed_allocated and total_allocated counters get out of sync with the
    real state of the matrix. Later, when the last interrupt is freed, these
    counters will underflow resulting in UINTMAX because the counters are
    unsigned.
    
    While this is certainly a problem of the calling code, this can be catched
    in the allocator by checking the allocation bit for the to be freed vector
    which simplifies debugging.
    
    An example of the problem described above:

    Add the missing sanity check and emit a warning when it triggers.
