That breaks the current code which has irq_data embedded and shadowed
in irq_desc for migratory reasons until all users are fixed up and the
GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED sections are cleaned up. I know it's
ugly, but that was the only way not to rewrite the world in one go. :)
Just move it below affinity.

Also we should name it different than status, drv_status perhaps, to
avoid confusion with the irq_desc status.
