sparseirq: work around __weak alias bug

Impact: fix boot crash if the kernel is built with certain GCC versions

GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in
the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to
inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override
the weak alias with the real thing.

This can lead to the boot crash reported by Kamalesh Babulal:

 ACPI: Core revision 20080926
 Setting APIC routing to flat
 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
 0000000000000000
 IP: [<ffffffff8021f9a8>] add_pin_to_irq_cpu+0x14/0x74
 PGD 0
 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
 [...]

So move the arch_init_chip_data() function from handle.c to manage.c.
