Again, not sure how useful this patch is. Might as well merge it with code
that actually does something. Couple of comments inline anyway...

So interrupt injection without the in-kernel GIC updates irq_lines, but the
in-kernel GIC has its own separate data structures? Why can't the in-kernel GIC
just use irq_lines instead of irq_pending_on_cpu?

For VFP, we use different terminology (sync and flush). I don't think they're
any clearer than what you have, but the consistency would be nice.

Given that both these functions are run with interrupts enabled, why doesn't
the second require a lock for updating dist->irq_pending_on_cpu? I notice
there's a random smp_mb() over there...

Likewise.

Separate patch?
