x86/PCI: Add $IRT PIRQ routing table support
Handle the $IRT PCI IRQ Routing Table format used by AMI for its BCP
(BIOS Configuration Program) external tool meant for tweaking BIOS
structures without the need to rebuild it from sources[1].
The $IRT format has been invented by AMI before Microsoft has come up
with its $PIR format and a $IRT table is therefore there in some systems
that lack a $PIR table, such as the DataExpert EXP8449 mainboard based
on the ALi FinALi 486 chipset (M1489/M1487), which predates DMI 2.0 and
cannot therefore be easily identified at run time.
Unlike with the $PIR format there is no alignment guarantee as to the
placement of the $IRT table, so scan the whole BIOS area bytewise.
Credit to Michal Necasek for helping me chase documentation for the
format.
