Changes to gt64260 interrupt support code

Simple translation of irqs doesn't really solve the
problem; a general solution would provide us with the
ability to initialize and service interrupt requests
routed through multiple, nested, heterogeneous
controllers no matter what the HW designers were
smoking when they laid out the system.  See earlier
posts to this list for good discussion on this topic.
