[PATCH 1/3] irq: If an IRQ is a GPIO, request and configure it

Many IRQs are associated with GPIO pins. When the pin is used as an IRQ,
it can't be used as anything else; it should be requested. Enhance the
core interrupt code to call gpio_request() and gpio_direction_input() for
any IRQ that is also a GPIO. This prevents duplication of these calls in
each driver that uses an IRQ.
