cf854041ce Hardware interrupts code path cleanup
- the PIC master and slave irq handlers don't pass the irq hook pointer but just
  the irq number. It gives a little bit more information to the C handler as the
  irq number is not lost

- the irq code path is more achitecture independent. i386 hw interrupts are
  called irq and whereever the code is arch independent enough hw_intr_
  functions are called to mask/unmask interrupts

- the legacy PIC is not the only possible interrupt controller in the x86 world,
  therefore the intr_(un)mask functions were renamed to signal their
  functionality explicitly. APIC will add their own.

- masking and unmasking PIC interrupt lines is removed from assembler and all
  the functionality is rewriten in C and moved to i8259.c

- interrupt handlers have to unmask the interrupt line if all irq handlers are
  done. Assembler does not do it anymore

4af032bbfe Kernel interrupt hook management fixes:
- properly assign unique hook IDs
- after hook removal, remove hook-specific interrupt disable flag

6f77685609 Split of architecture-dependent and -independent functions for i386,
mainly in the kernel and headers. This split based on work by
Ingmar Alting <iaalting@cs.vu.nl> done for his Minix PowerPC architecture
port.

 . kernel does not program the interrupt controller directly, do any
   other architecture-dependent operations, or contain assembly any more,
   but uses architecture-dependent functions in arch/$(ARCH)/.
 . architecture-dependent constants and types defined in arch/$(ARCH)/include.
 . <ibm/portio.h> moved to <minix/portio.h>, as they have become, for now,
   architecture-independent functions.
 . int86, sdevio, readbios, and iopenable are now i386-specific kernel calls
   and live in arch/i386/do_* now.
 . i386 arch now supports even less 86 code; e.g. mpx86.s and klib86.s have
   gone, and 'machine.protected' is gone (and always taken to be 1 in i386).
   If 86 support is to return, it should be a new architecture.
 . prototypes for the architecture-dependent functions defined in
   kernel/arch/$(ARCH)/*.c but used in kernel/ are in kernel/proto.h
 . /etc/make.conf included in makefiles and shell scripts that need to
   know the building architecture; it defines ARCH=<arch>, currently only
   i386.
 . some basic per-architecture build support outside of the kernel (lib)
 . in clock.c, only dequeue a process if it was ready
 . fixes for new include files

files deleted:
 . mpx/klib.s - only for choosing between mpx/klib86 and -386
 . klib86.s - only for 86

i386-specific files files moved (or arch-dependent stuff moved) to arch/i386/:
 . mpx386.s (entry point)
 . klib386.s
 . sconst.h
 . exception.c
 . protect.c
 . protect.h
 . i8269.c
