There was no NAK because I didn't get as far as posting the patch,
mostly because of the doubt about whether this code is ever relevant
on Thumb2-capable hardware.

If somebody with some old imx hardware that definitely relies on this
wants to pick it up and test it, it might still be useful.

I don't know whether I still have the original patch, but I think the
only think I did was to swap the roles of r13 and r12.  In the original
code r12 is only used as a base register, which is permissible usage
for r13 in Thumb-2.  Those two registers appear private to the fiq
handler, so I don't think the change will break anything, but I'd be
more confident is somebody is able to test it.

Cheers
