Ouch. This comes from 91ef844 ("irqchip/gic-v3: Reset BPR during
initialization") which has introduced a new accessor that doesn't get
converted by Vladimir's patch. My own fault.

This can be fixed-up by adding this to Vladimir's patch:

diff --git a/arch/arm/include/asm/arch_gicv3.h b/arch/arm/include/asm/arch_gicv3.h

but that'll create a minor conflict.

Another possibility is to put Vladimir's series on the backburner until
tip/irq/core gets in, and bring it back at this time. I'd prefer the
first solution, as it gives a bit more exposure to the code...

Thanks,
