This seems sort of OK just because we call the ->add() methods in
forward order, so it is symmetric to call the ->remove() methods in
reverse order.

But I'm uncomfortable with using this as a way to enforce ->remove()
ordering across acpiphp, iommu, and ioapic.  That seems fragile.

What are the dependencies between these drivers that require this ordering?

ioapic should come at first, and iommu and last is acpiphp.

iommu will check if intr-mapping is corresponding to ioapic controller number.
also dmar controller will need one normal irq without intr-remapping
for error handling.

need to use link sequence in Makefile to make sure iommu come at first.
