optimize irq routing in piix_pic.c which has been a TODO.
So far piix3 tracks each pirq level and checks whether a given pic pins is
asserted by seeing if each pirq is mapped into the pic pin.
This is independent on irq routing, but data path is on slow path.

Given that irq routing is rarely changed and asserting pic pins is on
data path, the path that asserts pic pins should be optimized and
chainging irq routing should be on slow path.
The new behavior with this patch series is to use bitmap which is addressed
by pirq and pic pins with a given irq routing.
When pirq is asserted, the bitmap is set and see if the pic pins is
asserted by checking the bitmaps.
When irq routing is changed, rebuild the bitmap and re-assert pic pins.

test:
- create VM with 4 e1000 nics in different pci slots
  (i.e. fn=0 for each e1000)
  Thus those e1000's INTA are connected to each PIRQ[A-D].
- run linux as guest and saw each devices triggers interrupt
  by seeing /proc/interrupts. And then confirmed that each PIRQ[A-D]
  surely asserted interrupts.
  Because irq 10 and 11 are shared by 4 e1000's, it only one NIC is activated
  with ifconfig ethN up/down when counting interrupts.

Changes v4 -> v5:
- fix piix_set_irq_pic()

Changes v3 -> v4:
- replace irq_num with pirq or pci_intx

Changes v1 -> v2:
- some minor clean ups
- commit log message

Hi,

I got a regression report which was obviously caused by this commit:

$ git bisect bad
ab431c283e7055bcd6fb622f212bb29e84a6a134 is the first bad commit
commit ab431c283e7055bcd6fb622f212bb29e84a6a134
Author: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp>
Date:   Fri Apr 1 20:43:23 2011 +0900

My test scenario:

i386-softmmu/qemu -L pc-bios -cdrom tinycore_3.5.1.iso -m 256 -boot d 
-net nic -net user -net dump

* Boot the default configuration (tinycore, or tinycore debug).
* Wait until X Windows is up.
* Check the size of qemu*.pcap. If it is only a few bytes, the test failed.
   Emulated networking then does not work, Tinycore does not get an IP 
address via DHCP.

The original report used tinycore_3.6.iso and the latest w32 binaries 
from qemu.weilnetz.de
with the same result. It also says that other Linux distributions show 
the same problem
(Fedora-14-i686-Live-Desktop.iso).

Regards
Stefan W.

I did a patch for it.
