[PATCH] irqdomain: Correct early allocation of irq domains with IRQs off

From: Borislav Petkov <bp at suse.de>

I'm seeing the following lockdep splat on an x2APIC machine with
interrupts remapping. The problem is that enable_IR_x2apic() disables
interrupts before doing any further initialization. However, after
having moved to irq domains, domain allocation cannot happen with
interrupts disabled (GFP_KERNEL).

A proper fix would be to move that initialization to the early irq setup
path, which is something for another day. It is more involved work too.

So do a temporary fix which should not encourage the behaviour of even
assuming the irq domains code should be called with interrupts disabled.
Make it x86-only too.

...
dmar: Host address width 36
dmar: DRHD base: 0x000000fed90000 flags: 0x0
dmar: IOMMU 0: reg_base_addr fed90000 ver 1:0 cap c0000020e60262 ecap f0101a
dmar: DRHD base: 0x000000fed91000 flags: 0x1

dmar: RMRR base: 0x000000da2ba000 end: 0x000000da2d0fff
dmar: RMRR base: 0x000000db800000 end: 0x000000df9fffff
IOAPIC id 2 under DRHD base  0xfed91000 IOMMU 1
HPET id 0 under DRHD base 0xfed91000
Queued invalidation will be enabled to support x2apic and Intr-remapping.
