Yes, I've just tried a little bit of test code (I don't have a non-DT 
VIC platform) but for each IRQ (starting from 32 like your platform) for 
2 VIC's it just sets the hwirq (0->31 for each VIC) for each IRQ and 
that's all the IRQ domain stuff does for non-DT platforms.

OK.  You mentioned you had trouble reverting the patch yesterday - I've 
pushed a branch (git://github.com/jamieiles/linux-2.6-ji.git 
vic-dt-revert-next) which is today's next with all of the VIC patches 
reverted if you want to try that to be sure.  I've built s3c6400_defconfig 
successfully, but can't test it unless there's a qemu model somewhere?

Thanks,

Jamie
