I don't think this patch should go via hyperv-next. The helper
function is introduced in the linux-next patch in the irq/irqchip-next tree,
so this patch should go through irq/irqchip-next to avoid creating an
interdependency.

Since the original breaking change is not upstream, do I need
a Fixes: tag? Won't using a linux-next commitID in a Fixes:
tag be confusing? There's nothing to backport to stable.
