irq: allocate irq_desc_ptrs array based on nr_irqs
Impact: allocate irq_desc_ptrs in preparation for making it variable-sized. This addresses this memory usage bump when NR_CPUS bumped from 128 to 4096: 34816 +229376 264192 +658% irq_desc_ptrs(.data.read_mostly) The patch is split into two parts, the first simply allocates the irq_desc_ptrs array. Then next will deal with making it variable. This is only when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y. Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com>
