I am not quite sure what your are referring to.

Patch 1-3 should be able to go through the irqchip/gic along with the
gicv3 from Marc, which I have rebased this patch against.

Patch 4 is arch64 architectural changes. Therefore, it might need to be
going through a different branch. Marc/Mark/Will/Catalin, do you have
any suggestions on which branch this should go to?

1 and 2 should be trivial since there is no change functionally.

3 mostly adding new files which should not get built if ARCH64 PCI is
not supported based on the arch/arm64/Kconfig below.

+++ b/arch/arm64/Kconfig
@@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ config ARM64
select ARM_AMBA
select ARM_ARCH_TIMER
select ARM_GIC
+ select ARM_GIC_V2M if (PCI && PCI_MSI)
select ARM_GIC_V3
select BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT
select CLONE_BACKWARDS
The only thing is the change related to MSI in the irq-gic.c which
should not affect with the non-PCI system.

Thanks,

Suravee
