Sekhar Nori 61836242f8 irqchip/omap-intc: Add support for spurious irq handling ...

commit d3b421cd07 upstream.

Under some conditions, irq sorting procedure used by INTC can go wrong
resulting in a spurious irq getting reported.

If this condition is not handled, it results in endless stream of:

    unexpected IRQ trap at vector 00

messages from ack_bad_irq()

Handle the spurious interrupt condition in omap-intc driver to prevent this.

Measurements using kernel function profiler on AM335x EVM running at 720MHz
show that after this patch omap_intc_handle_irq() takes about 37.4us against
34us before this patch.
