CVE-2024-49927

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

x86/ioapic: Handle allocation failures gracefully

Breno observed panics when using failslab under certain conditions during
runtime:

can not alloc irq_pin_list (-1,0,20)
Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC: failed to add irq-pin. Can not proceed

panic+0x4e9/0x590
mp_irqdomain_alloc+0x9ab/0xa80
irq_domain_alloc_irqs_locked+0x25d/0x8d0
__irq_domain_alloc_irqs+0x80/0x110
mp_map_pin_to_irq+0x645/0x890
acpi_register_gsi_ioapic+0xe6/0x150
hpet_open+0x313/0x480

That's a pointless panic which is a leftover of the historic IO/APIC code
which panic'ed during early boot when the interrupt allocation failed.

The only place which might justify panic is the PIT/HPET timer_check() code
which tries to figure out whether the timer interrupt is delivered through
the IO/APIC. But that code does not require to handle interrupt allocation
failures. If the interrupt cannot be allocated then timer delivery fails
and it either panics due to that or falls back to legacy mode.

Cure this by removing the panic wrapper around __add_pin_to_irq_node() and
making mp_irqdomain_alloc() aware of the failure condition and handle it as
any other failure in this function gracefully.
