SubjectRe: [PATCH 4.2-rc1 v21 3/6] irqchip: gic: Introduce plumbing for IPI FIQ

I wonder if gic_set_group_irq() can easily be married with mxc_set_irq_fiq().

The driver sound/soc/fsl/imx-pcm-fiq.c uses mxc_set_irq_fiq() to
connect an (assembly) FIQ handler with a hardware IRQ. However, the
underlying implementation of mxc_set_irq_fiq() is only supported for
TZIC and AVIC (see arch/arm/mach-imx/irq-common.c).

On my i.MX6, which doesn't have an AVIC/TZIC but a GIC I could use a
method to turn a normal IRQ into a FIQ :-)
