why should we rename kvm's irq.h?  It works on other arches like
x86/aarch/powerpc, it does not work on mips platform. Just because these
header files are not used with path prefix on mips system, it brings out
such problem.

Today if we modify generic kvm code, it maybe brings out problem with
other modules tommorrow. Else we declare that these files can be defined
locally on all modules:
  cpu-feature-overrides.h  floppy.h  ide.h  ioremap.h  irq.h
  kernel-entry-init.h  kmalloc.h  mangle-port.h  mc146818rtc.h
