genirq: Add mutex to irq desc to serialize request/free_irq()
The irq_request/release_resources() callbacks ar currently invoked under desc->lock with interrupts disabled. This is a source of problems on RT and conceptually not required. Add a seperate mutex to struct irq_desc which allows to serialize request/free_irq(), which can be used to move the resource functions out of the desc->lock held region.
