True, it's not a full implementation, but I'd rather the same
structure be used for both powerpc and x86.

Thomas, this only touches x86, so I have no objection to you merging
it, but I'd like to see a follow up patch to merge the x86 and powerpc
irq_host/irq_domain structures.

However, there is a defect below that must be fixed first....

Return value is an unsigned int. 0 or NO_IRQ is the correct thing to
return if an IRQ cannot be mapped.

Ditto here. xlate is also supposed to return a virq number, not an
error code, so the failure condition must be "if (!ret)" or
"if (reg == NO_IRQ)". The former is preferred since we're trying to
eliminate references to NO_IRQ, not add more of them.
