New consolidate irqs vs . probe_irq_*()

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

Ingo, while we are at it,

Do you have any objection if I send a patch making the whole probe_irq_*
stuff optional on a CONFIG_ option ? (turning it into nops like we used
to have on ppc until now, if the option isn't set).

I really don't want to mess with that racy mecanism that makes sense for
ISA only afaik, and it seems some drivers are trying to use it now that
it's there (/me looks toward yenta_socket) and I'm afraid of the
consequences since I cannot see how that thing can work properly in the
first place ;)

Ben.
