Ok, here's what I did:
[jason at triton] $ git ldo --graph v3.16-rc1^..irqchip/gic-v2m

* 7171511eaec5 (tag: v3.16-rc1) Linux 3.16-rc1
remote branches removed for clarity.
Basically, I reset irqchip/gic back to tags/deps-irqchip-gic-3.17 (The
stable tag for GICv3 support), and made the MSI series irqchip/gic-v2m.
I've also removed the dep tag for gic-v2m (tags/dep-irqchip-gic-3.17-2).
Please consider irqchip/gic-v2m to be completely unstable and drop-able.
It'll be in -next, but until I hear from Marc, it's not going anywhere.
No commit IDs have changed during this process. The only problem that
may occur is if the guys depending on GICv3 pulled the branch *and*
updated it yesterday. If they pulled the tag as I provided, then
they're fine.
Sorry for the confusion, I hope I've made it clear above.
thx,
Jason.
