(sorry for the really late reply on this. I took a break at Christmas
and jetlag has been beating up my concentration since I got back. I
actually started writing this reply before Christmas, but the
investigation sidetracked me enough that I never finished it.)

I did try to fix the bug first, but it became more involved that I would
like for a stablization change (and I went down a lot of rabbit trails
in the process). I preferred reverting because this was all contained
to a single driver which can be backed out easily to have another cycle
for a correct fix. I did try your change though...

In actual fact, only changing the offset to 32 is required to get
Versatile to boot with DT. That platform doesn't yet use vic_of_init().
It currently depends on pre-allocated irq_descs. Calling
irq_create_mapping() doesn't resolve this. I now have patches to rework
the versatile OF support to use irq_of_init(), but they aren't ready
for posting yet. Merging the bump to offset 32 would be fine for now.

Since you're touching this line anyway, please change to:

#define IRQ_SIC_START			(IRQ_VIC_START + 32)

Similarly here: #define IRQ_SIC_END (IRQ_SIC_START + 31)

And then you can add my acked by for the irq number changes.
