Fix regression. Make hot unlplug of CPU0 work again.

Early in the 2.6.23 cycle we broke the ability to offline cpu0
(7ccb4a662462616f6be5053e26b79580e02f1529).  This patch fixes that by
ensuring that the (xics)  default irq server, will not be 0 when taking
cpu0 offline.

Also catches a use of irq, when virq should be used (I think that the
last one).

Unless there is a problem with this patch, it'd be nice to get it into
2.6.23 :)
