PV on HVM guests map GSIs into event channels. At restore time the
event channels are resumed by restore_pirqs.

Device drivers might try to register the same GSI again through ACPI at
restore time, but the GSI has already been mapped and bound by
restore_pirqs. This patch detects these situations and avoids
 mapping the same GSI multiple times.

Without this patch we get:
(XEN) irq.c:2235: dom4: pirq 23 or emuirq 28 already mapped
and waste a pirq.

<title>xen/event: Add reference counting to event channels</title>

Event channels exposed to userspace by the evtchn module may be used by
other modules in an asynchronous manner, which requires that reference
counting be used to prevent the event channel from being closed before
the signals are delivered.

The reference count on new event channels defaults to -1 which indicates
the event channel is not referenced outside the kernel; evtchn_get fails
if called on such an event channel. The event channels made visible to
userspace by evtchn have a normal reference count.

In the past (2.6.38) the 'xen_allocate_pirq_gsi' would allocate
an entry in a Linux IRQ -&gt; {XEN_IRQ, type, event, ..} array. All
of that has been removed in 2.6.39 and the Xen IRQ subsystem uses
an linked list that is populated when the call to
'xen_allocate_irq_gsi' (universally done from any of the xen_bind_*
calls) is done. The 'xen_allocate_pirq_gsi' is a NOP and there is
no need for it anymore so lets remove it.

We need this to find the real Xen PIRQ value for a device
that requests an MSI or MSI-X. In the past we used
'xen_gsi_from_irq' since that function would return
an Xen PIRQ or GSI depending on the provided IRQ. Now that
we have seperated that we need to use the correct
function.

We do this via the PHYSDEVOP_irq_status_query support hypervisor call.
We will get a positive value if another domain has binded its

We check if there is a domain owner for the PCI device. In case of failure
(meaning no domain has registered for this device) we make DOMID_SELF the owner.

Following the example set by xen_allocate_pirq_msi and
xen_bind_pirq_msi_to_irq:

xen_allocate_pirq becomes xen_allocate_pirq_gsi and now only allocates
a pirq number and does not bind it.

xen_map_pirq_gsi becomes xen_bind_pirq_gsi_to_irq and binds an
existing pirq.

I was unable to find any user of these functions in either the
functionality pending for 2.6.39 or the xen/next-2.6.32 branch of
xen.git

An exception to this was xen_gsi_from_irq which did appear to be used
in xen/next-2.6.32's pciback. However in the 2.6.39 version of pciback
xen_pirq_from_irq is, correctly AFAICT, used instead.

Only a minority of functions in events.h use "extern" so drop it from
those places for consistency.
