FYI, this patch introduced regression (kernel crash) at least on Amstrad E1 board (where FIQ is used for the keyboard). See the following thread: http://marc.info/?t=137583169900003&r=1&w=2
So any stable kernels where this patch was added should also take:
commit 2ba85e7af4c639d933c9a87a6d7363f2983d5ada Author: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Date: Thu Aug 8 11:51:21 2013 +0100
ARM: Fix FIQ code on VIVT CPUs
That patch fixes the regression.
