pirq_routing: Allow routing with more than 4 PIRQ links
pirq_routing_irqs assumed that only four links are available for PIRQ
routing, INTA to INTD. Some chipsets provide more, up to INTH.
When pirq_routing_irqs found a link number greater than 4 in the pirq table,
it would not assign that IRQ. This is a shame, as it limits the flexibility
of routing IRQs.
Make the maximum number of links a Kconfig variable, and modify the code to
respect it. This works beatifully on the VX900, which provides 8 routable
interrupts.
While we're at it, also refactor pirq_routing_irqs, and add some much
needed comments.
Rename pirq_routing_irqs to pirq_route_irqs to demistify the role of this
function.
The copyrights added were determined from git log filename.

+ This variable specifies the number of PIRQ interrupt links which are
+ routable. On most chipsets, this is 4, INTA through INTD. Some
+ chipsets offer more than four links, commonly up to INTH. They may
+ also have a separate link for ATA or IOAPIC interrupts. When the PIRQ
