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.

help
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
table specifies links greater than 4, pirq_route_irqs will not
function properly, unless this variable is correctly set.
