Hi everyone.
This series is mostly a set of cleanup to the interrupt parsing code. Some of it merely clarification, like the renames of of_irq_map_*, some to tighten up the API by using of_phandle_args, and some to prepare for the last patch in the series.
Of all these patches, the last one is probably the only one likely to be controversial. It adds a new way of specifying interrupts. If a device gets wired up to multiple interrupt controllers, the interrupts-extended property allows the device to specify multiple connections without redirecting through an interrupt-map node which can be rather difficult to understand. In a lot of cases, an interrupts-extended property is a whole lot easier to use.
Please take a look and comment. We'll probably discuss the interrupts-extended binding in Edinburgh at the DT workshop in a few weeks.
