Hi Colin,

Is something like the following correct for updating mach-tegra/irq.c?

I'm not 100% about the ordering in tegra_eoi, so I left it alone.

As it stands, this will be a pain to merge because the GIC code may be
out-of-sync with mach-tegra and we could get the flow control type
wrong. Any thoughts about how to resolve that? One [ugly] option is to
check the gic->irq_eoi pointer and choose the flow type based on that,
leaving the irq_ack pointer intact. This could be removed once the GIC
changes are in mainline.

Cheers,

Will
