[PATCH 0/5] genirq: Get rid of handle_percpu_devid_fasteoi_ipi()

From: Valentin Schneider

Hi folks,

While hacking on the GIC flow handlers, I grew increasingly suspicious of
handle_percpu_devid_fasteoi_ipi() and thus did a bit of digging. AFAICT it isn't
actually needed and handle_percpu_devid_irq() would suffice. Argumentation is in
patch 1.

Tested on my Juno (GICv2) and eMAG (GICv3).

Whichever way this goes I owe Marc some pastries, given I either
- Missed something and created some noise
- Turned my brain off back when reviewing this flow handler
so maybe just start with pinging me what you want...

Valentin Schneider (5):
irqchip/gic, gic-v3: Make SGIs use handle_percpu_devid_irq()
irqchip/armada-370-xp: Make IPIs use handle_percpu_devid_irq()
irqchip/bcm2836: Make IPIs use handle_percpu_devid_irq()
irqchip/hip04: Make IPIs use handle_percpu_devid_irq()
