[PATCH] ARM: Common GIC entry macro code

[Abhijeet Dharmapurikar]

Magnus,

   The patch assumes that PPI's could be nothing but timers. On msm we 
have other interrupts which are PPI's.

   I have tested this and doesn't work for msm. The reason being we treat
PPI timer interrupts as usual interrupts, meaning use do_asm_IRQ() 
instead of do_local_timer(). Besides there are other non timer 
interrupts that are PPIs and we need do_asm_IRQ() to be called for them.

   You might want to exclude msm from this patch.

Not all the PPI's are timer interrupts on MSM. MSM would need this to be 
compared to 15 rather than 29.

See above line
