genirq: NULL struct irq_desc's member 'name' in dynamic_irq_cleanup()
If the member 'name' of the irq_desc structure happens to point to a character string that is resident within a kernel module, problems ensue if that module is rmmod'd (at which time dynamic_irq_cleanup() is called) and then later show_interrupts() is called by someone. It is also not a good thing if the character string resided in kmalloc'd space that has been kfree'd (after having called dynamic_irq_cleanup()). dynamic_irq_cleanup() fails to NULL the 'name' member and show_interrupts() references it on a few architectures (like h8300, sh and x86).
