x86/irq: Probe for PIC presence before allocating descs for legacy IRQs

Commit d32932d0 ("x86/irq: Convert IOAPIC to use hierarchical irqdomain
interfaces") brought a regression for Hyper-V Gen2 instances. These
instances don't have i8259 legacy PIC but they use legacy IRQs for serial
port, rtc, and acpi. With this commit included we end up with these IRQs
not initialized. Earlier, there was a special workaround for legacy IRQs
in mp_map_pin_to_irq() doing mp_irqdomain_map() without looking at
nr_legacy_irqs() and now we fail in __irq_domain_alloc_irqs() when
irq_domain_alloc_descs() returns -EEXIST.

The essence of the issue seems to be that early_irq_init() calls
arch_probe_nr_irqs() to figure out the number of legacy IRQs before
we probe for i8259 and gets 16. Later when init_8259A() is called we switch
to NULL legacy PIC and nr_legacy_irqs() starts to return 0 but we already
have 16 descs allocated.

Solve the issue by separating i8259 probe from init and calling it in
arch_probe_nr_irqs() before we actually use nr_legacy_irqs() information.

Fixes: d32932d0
