Please add a link to the errata document.

The errata document says a lot more:

<quote>
For physical LPIs the workaround is to issue an INV using GICR_INVLPIR
to an unused, in range LPI ID to retrigger the search. This could be
done periodically, for example, in line with a residency change, or as
part of servicing LPIs. If using LPIs as the event, then the
GICR_INVLPIR write could be issued after servicing every LPI.

However, it only needs to be issued if:

* At least 4 interrupts in the block of 32 are enabled and mapped to
the current PE or, if easier,

* At least 4 interrupts in the block of 32 are enabled and mapped to
any PE

Use MSEC_PER_SEC.

The errata document doesn't say that this need to happen for *every*
RD. Can you please clarify this?

Don't split assignments.

No synchronisation? How is that supposed to work?

Also, if you need to dig into the internals of the driver, extract a
helper from __direct_lpi_inv().

It would be pretty easy to detect whether an LPI was ack'ed since the
last pass, and not issue the invalidate.

It is a bit odd to hook this on an ITS being probed when the ITS isn't
really involved. Not a big deal, but a bit clumsy.

This catches r0p0 and r1p0, but not r0p1 (you require that bits 15:12
are 0).

Overall, this requires a bit of rework. Notably, this could be
significantly relaxed to match the requirements of the published
workaround.

Thanks,
