irqchip: Add LPC32xx interrupt controller driver
The change adds improved support of NXP LPC32xx MIC, SIC1 and SIC2 interrupt controllers. This is a list of new features in comparison to the legacy driver: * irq types are taken from device tree settings, no more need to hardcode them, * old driver is based on irq_domain_add_legacy, which causes problems with handling MIC hardware interrupt 0 produced by SIC1, * there is one driver for MIC, SIC1 and SIC2, no more need to handle them separately, e.g. have two separate handlers for SIC1 and SIC2, * the driver does not have any dependencies on hardcoded register offsets, * the driver is much simpler for maintenance, * SPARSE_IRQS option is supported. Legacy LPC32xx interrupt controller driver was broken since commit 76ba59f8 ("genirq: Add irq_domain-aware core IRQ handler"), which requires a private interrupt handler, otherwise any SIC1 generated interrupt (mapped to MIC hwirq 0) breaks the kernel with the message "unexpected IRQ trap at vector 00". The change disables compilation of a legacy driver found at arch/arm/mach-lpc32xx/irq.c, the file will be removed in a separate commit.
