Sorry for pestering, i understand that none of the ARM SoC pull requests
has been picked up as opposed to what happens normally by this time of
development cycle. Still asking as this is part of tree wide series &
it is safe to send core removal patch of setup_irq() to Thomas only
after all it's usages have been removed.
