[PATCH] Debug shared irqs

Drivers registering IRQ handlers with SA_SHIRQ really ought to be able to
handle an interrupt happening before request_irq() returns.  They also
ought to be able to handle an interrupt happening during the start of their
call to free_irq().  Let's test that hypothesis....

Enable this to generate a spurious interrupt as soon as a shared
interrupt handler is registered, and just before one is deregistered.
Drivers ought to be able to handle interrupts coming in at those
points; some don't and need to be caught.
