[PATCH] ARM: OMAP4+: wakeupgen: fix memory corruption

Fix a memory corruption bug caused by commit
247c445c0fbd52c77e497ff5bfcf0dceb8afea8d ("ARM: OMAP5: Add the
WakeupGen IP updates") and commit
ec2c0825ca3183a646a24717966cc7752e8b0393 ("ARM: OMAP2+: Remove
hardcoded IRQs and enable SPARSE_IRQ").
The first commit, in the OMAP4+ wakeupgen code, has an implicit
dependency on !SPARSE_IRQ. It allocates a static array with NR_IRQS
elements, then proceeds to iterate over 128 or 160 elements of
that array, clearing them to zero.
The second commit switched OMAP2+ to use sparse IRQs, but missed the
NR_IRQS reference in the wakeupgen code. Before the second commit,
NR_IRQS was 474 on OMAP4430; but afterwards, it became 16.
This resulted in the wakeupgen code allocating a 16 element array, and
then attempting to write to 128 or 160 of those elements, depending on the
type of SoC. This trashed a chunk of whatever was allocated after the
array.
The immediate manifestation was a set of boot warnings similar to the
following:
WARNING: at arch/arm/mach-omap2/omap_hwmod.c:1941 _enable+0x1bc/0x204()
omap_hwmod: mpu: could not enable clockdomain mpuss_clkdm: -22
...
since it blew away arch_clkdm. Ultimately the kernel crashed during boot.
Fix the problem in the OMAP4+ wakeupgen code by removing the reference to
NR_IRQS, allocating a larger array, and warning if the iteration is larger
than the array.

Applies on arm-soc omap/cleanup-sparseirq and should ideally be merged
there before the 3.7 merge window.
