Make irq_base signed.

This should be irq_alloc_descs(irq_base, 1,

So that dynamic allocation can work when irq_base is -1.

On failure, just warn and do:

domain->irq_base = irq_base

instead of returning unless all platforms using this are completely
converted over to support dynamic Linux virq mapping.

Also you should update your platforms' to set mdesc.nr_irq to
NR_IRQS_LEGACY. And test with SPARSE_IRQ turned on.
