Is this going to work with the platforms that use the orion_wdt driver
but are not using the orion irqchip driver? Take for example
mach-orion5x, it still uses the plat-orion/irq.c code and not the
irqchip orion driver, as far as I can see.
The orion irqchip driver is DT only, so all of the Orion platforms that
have not been converted to DT are still using the old irq code.
Any thoughts on the consequences of this in relation with your patch?
Thomas
