Thanks for the infos.

Ok.

Just to make an example hw_resend_irq will be certainly need by the generic part of the kernel. Having a way to cleanly include architectural code is good IMHO. Such file it's just like asm/pgtable.h.
If you want to put the very very alpha stuff in irq_impl.h that's not wrong, but moving things like hw_resend_irq outside include/asm-alpha/ is certainly wrong and that won't happen here.
