Acked-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>

But can you change the subject/commit message to:

xen/events: support threaded irqs for interdomain event channels

Export bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irq() so drivers can use threaded
interrupt handlers with:

irq = bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irq(remote_dom, remote_port);
if (irq < 0)
/* error */
ret = request_threaded_irq(...);

Since your pvscsi series depends on this you will want to add this to
that series to be merged via the scsi tree.
