Thanks for the patch. The issue looks real although one thing was
missed - there is a gap in SVC group between GPK2 and GPL0 (pointed by
Marek Szyprowski):

0x0 - EINT_23 - gpk0
0x1 - EINT_24 - gpk1
0x2 - EINT_25 - gpk2
0x4 - EINT_27 - gpl0
0x7 - EINT_8 - gpm0

Maybe this should be done differently - to remove such hidden
requirement entirely in favor of another parameter of
EXYNOS_PIN_BANK_EINTG argument? Anyway if such hidden requirement
stays, then please document it in the source code (it maybe next to
PIN order... or next macro... or also in exynos_eint_gpio_irq()).

Beside that please add cc-stable and appropriate fixes tag,

Best regards,
Krzysztof
