genirq: Uninline and sanity check generic_handle_irq()
generic_handle_irq() is missing a NULL pointer check for the result of irq_to_desc. This was a not a big problem, but we want to expose it to drivers, so we better have sanity checks in place. Add a return value as well, which indicates that the irq number was valid and the handler was invoked. Based on the pure code move from Jonathan Cameron.
