Add a mutex to prevent concurrency on the updater side of the
irq_desc radix tree.

Add rcu_read_lock/unlock to the reader side so that lifetimes of
leaf pointers of the radix tree are correctly managed.

The callers of insert/delete are already serialized by sparse_irq_lock. SO
why would we need yet another mutex?

That rcu protection is only needed for callers which have special life time
requirements and they have that already. For the bulk of the callers rcu
read lock is not required unless I'm missing something.
