sparseirq: move __weak symbols into separate compilation unit

GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override the weak alias with the real thing. So move all the IRQ handling related __weak symbols to kernel/irq/chip.c. Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
