Thanks for your understanding.

Sorry for bothering you again, but I've stripped down the irqchip
patches originally
posted at [1] even more, as can be seen in the latest submission (v14) that I've
CC-ed you; I'd like to get Acked-by from you for the 2 patches, to hopefully get
the port PR sent shortly.

In addition, as the timing is rather tight by now, if you don't want to give out
the Acked-by for any reason, would you please explain a little bit in a quick
reply? So that I can arrange for things inside Loongson in advance if the port
isn't going to appear in v5.19.

Thanks again,

Huacai
