On resume irq_info[*].evtchn is reset to 0 since event channel mappings are not
preserved over suspend/resume. The other contents of irq_info is preserved to
allow rebind_evtchn_irq() to function.

However when a device resumes it will try to unbind from the previous IRQ (e.g.
blkfront goes blkfront_resume() -> blkif_free() -> unbind_from_irqhandler() ->
unbind_from_irq()). This will fail due to the check for VALID_EVTCHN in
unbind_from_irq() and the IRQ is leaked. The device will then continue to
resume and allocate a new IRQ, eventually leading to find_unbound_irq()
panic()ing.

Fix this by changing unbind_from_irq() to handle teardown of interrupts which
have type!=IRQT_UNBOUND but are not currently bound to a specific event
channel.
