genirq, ARM: Fix boot on ARM platforms

Commit b683de2b3 in linux-next as of 20101014 (genirq: Query
arch for number of early descriptors) seems to have broken
bootup on several ARM boards - my beagleboard gives the
following dump with earlyprintk:

 NR_IRQS:402
 Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual
 address 00000028 pgd = c0004000
 [00000028] *pgd=00000000
 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1]
 last sysfs file:
 Modules linked in:
 CPU: 0    Not tainted
 (2.6.36-rc7-next-20101014-linux-next-20101012+ #40) PC is at
 init_IRQ+0x14/0x48 LR is at start_kernel+0x150/0x2c0
 [...]

We seem to be using desc->status without assigning desc to
anything. Fix this by adding back the code that was originally
there.
