irq: Export functions to allow modular irq drivers

Export handle_simple_irq, irq_modify_status, irq_alloc_descs,
irq_free_descs and generic_handle_irq to allow their usage in
modules. First user is IIO, which wants to be built modular, but needs
to be able to create irq chips, allocate and configure interrupt
descriptors and handle demultiplexing interrupts.

[ tglx: Moved the uninlinig of generic_handle_irq to a separate patch ]
