There are three cases in the genirq code when the irq, as an unsigned
integer variable, is converted to text representation by sprintf().
In two cases it uses '%d' specifier which is for signed values. While
it's not a problem right now, potentially it might be in the future
in case too big (&gt; INT_MAX) number will appear there.

Consistently use '%u' format specifier for @irq which is declared as
unsigned int in all these cases.

The recent conversion of show_interrupts() to seq_put_decimal_ull_width()
caused a formatting regression as it drops a previosuly existing space
separator.

Add it back by unconditionally inserting a space after the interrupt
counts and removing the extra leading space from the chip name prints.

seq_printf() is more expensive than seq_put_decimal_ull_width() due to the
format string parsing costs.

Profiling on a x86 8-core system indicates seq_printf() takes ~47% samples
of show_interrupts(). Replacing it with seq_put_decimal_ull_width() yields
almost 30% performance gain.

Use the irq_get_nr_irqs() function instead of the global variable
'nr_irqs'. Cache the result of this function in a local variable in
order not to rely on CSE (common subexpression elimination). Prepare
for changing 'nr_irqs' from an exported global variable into a variable
with file scope.

Currently, when the affinity of an irq cannot be set due to lack of
permission, the write_irq_affinity() returns the error code -EIO.

Change the return value to -EPERM as that reflects the cause of error
correctly.

The kernel already knows at the time of interrupt allocation whether
affinity of an interrupt can be controlled by userspace or not.

It still creates all related procfs control files with read/write
permissions. That's inconsistent and non-intuitive for system
administrators and tools.

Therefore set the file permissions to read-only for such interrupts.

Interrupts which have no action and chained interrupts can be
ignored due to the following reasons (as per tglx's comment):

  1) Interrupts which have no action are completely uninteresting as
     there is no real information attached.

  2) Chained interrupts do not have a count at all.

So there is no point to evaluate the number of accounted interrupts before
checking for non-requested or chained interrupts.

Remove the any_count logic and simply check whether the interrupt
descriptor has the kstat_irqs member populated.

show_interrupts() unconditionally accumulates the per CPU interrupt
statistics to determine whether an interrupt was ever raised.

This can be avoided for all interrupts which are not strictly per CPU
and not of type NMI because those interrupts provide already an
accumulated counter. The required logic is already implemented in
kstat_irqs().

Split the inner access logic out of kstat_irqs() and use it for
kstat_irqs() and show_interrupts() to avoid the accumulation loop
when possible.
