Hm, I think you are correct yes. NVIC interrupt ID's are shifted by 16
compared to the Cortex-M4 vector table. Also the irq check above would
need to take care of that.

I anyway need to have a look into that, since I need to make sure that I
work with the right interrupt ID's for both cores M4 (NVIC) and A5
(GIC)... The assignment is quite nicely listed in chapter 3.2.4
(Interrupt Assignments) in the Vybrid RM. The table also supports your
statement above.

Agreed on all the rest.
