Look up the descriptor and check that it is found in handle_one_irq
before checking if we are on the irq stack, and call the handler
directly using the descriptor if we are on the stack.

We need check irq_to_desc finds the descriptor to avoid a NULL
pointer dereference.  It could have failed because the number from
ppc_md.get_irq was above NR_IRQS, or various exceptional conditions
with sparse irqs (eg race conditions while freeing an irq if its was
not shutdown in the controller).

fe12bc2c99 (genirq: Uninline and sanity check generic_handle_irq())
moved generic_handle_irq out of line to allow its use by interrupt
controllers in modules.  However, handle_one_irq is core arch code.
It already knows the details of struct irq_desc and handling irqs in
the nested irq case.  This will avoid the extra stack frame to return
the value we don't check.
