Valentin Rothberg d8bf368d06 genirq: Remove the deprecated 'IRQF_DISABLED' request_irq() flag entirely
The IRQF_DISABLED flag is a NOOP and has been scheduled for removal
since Linux v2.6.36 by commit 6932bf37be ("genirq: Remove
IRQF_DISABLED from core code").

According to commit e58aa3d2d0 ("genirq: Run irq handlers with
interrupts disabled"), running IRQ handlers with interrupts
enabled can cause stack overflows when the interrupt line of the
issuing device is still active.

This patch ends the grace period for IRQF_DISABLED (i.e.,
SA_INTERRUPT in older versions of Linux) and removes the
definition and all remaining usages of this flag.

There's still a few non-functional references left in the kernel
source:

  - The bigger hunk in Documentation/scsi/ncr53c8xx.txt is removed entirely
    as IRQF_DISABLED is gone now; the usage in older kernel versions
    (including the old SA_INTERRUPT flag) should be discouraged.  The
    trouble of using IRQF_SHARED is a general problem and not specific to
    any driver.

  - I left the reference in Documentation/PCI/MSI-HOWTO.txt untouched since
    it has already been removed in linux-next.

  - All remaining references are changelogs that I suggest to keep.
