genirq: Add untracked irq handler
This adds a software irq handler for controllers that multiplex interrupts from multiple devices, but don't know which device generated the interrupt. For these devices, the irq handler that demuxes must check every action for every software irq using the same h/w irq in order to find out which device generated the interrupt. This will inevitably trigger spurious interrupt detection if we are noting the irq. The new irq handler does not track the handling for spurious interrupt detection. An irq that uses this also won't get stats tracked since it didn't generate the interrupt, nor added to randomness since they are not random.
