Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Tree wide:

   - Make nr_irqs static to the core code and provide accessor functions
     to remove existing and prevent future aliasing problems with local
     variables or function arguments of the same name.

  Core code:

   - Prevent freeing an interrupt in the devres code which is not
     managed by devres in the first place.

   - Use seq_put_decimal_ull_width() for decimal values output in
     /proc/interrupts which increases performance significantly as it
     avoids parsing the format strings over and over.

   - Optimize raising the timer and hrtimer soft interrupts by using the
     'set bit only' variants instead of the combined version which
     checks whether ksoftirqd should be woken up. The latter is a
     pointless exercise as both soft interrupts are raised in the
     context of the timer interrupt and therefore never wake up
     ksoftirqd.

   - Delegate timer/hrtimer soft interrupt processing to a dedicated
     thread on RT.

     Timer and hrtimer soft interrupts are always processed in ksoftirqd
     on RT enabled kernels. This can lead to high latencies when other
     soft interrupts are delegated to ksoftirqd as well.

     The separate thread allows to run them seperately under a RT
     scheduling policy to reduce the latency overhead.

  Drivers:

   - New drivers or extensions of existing drivers to support Renesas
     RZ/V2H(P), Aspeed AST27XX, T-HEAD C900 and ATMEL sam9x7 interrupt
     chips

   - Support for multi-cluster GICs on MIPS.

     MIPS CPUs can come with multiple CPU clusters, where each CPU
     cluster has its own GIC (Generic Interrupt Controller). This
     requires to access the GIC of a remote cluster through a redirect
     register block.

     This is encapsulated into a set of helper functions to keep the
     complexity out of the actual code paths which handle the GIC
     details.

   - Support for encrypted guests in the ARM GICV3 ITS driver

     The ITS page needs to be shared with the hypervisor and therefore
     must be decrypted.

   - Small cleanups and fixes all over the place"
