A recent patch added calls to of_irq_count() in the qcom pinctrl
drivers and that caused module build failures because
of_irq_count() is not an exported symbol. We shouldn't export
of_irq_count() to modules because it's an internal OF API that
shouldn't be used by drivers. Platform drivers should use
platform device APIs instead. Therefore, add a platform_irq_count()
API that mirrors the of_irq_count() API so that platform drivers
can stay DT agnostic.

I think there are a couple of other drivers that can use this too.
