Xen devel - Sep 2011 - [PATCH v3] Clear IRQ_GUEST in irq_desc->status when setting action to NULL.

Looking more closely at usage of action field with relation to
IRQ_GUEST flag. It appears that set IRQ_GUEST implies that action
is not NULL. As result it is not safe to set action to NULL and
leave IRQ_GUEST set.

Hence IRQ_GUEST should be cleared in dynamic_irq_cleanup where
action is set to NULL.

An addition remove BUGON at __pirq_guest_unbind that appears to be
bogus and not needed anymore.

Thanks Paolo Bonzini for NACKing previous patch, and pointing at the
correct solution.

Please review.
