[PATCH V3 03/16] irqchip: crossbar: introduce ti,irqs-skip to skip

Sricharan,

Your subject line seems truncated:

  "irqchip: crossbar: introduce ti,irqs-skip to skip"

maybe "... Introduce DT property to skip hardwired irqs" ?

Also note that you need to correct the subject line for *every* patch in
the series wrt capitalization.

I don't mind correcting it when I apply it, provided that:

 - the patch is otherwise ready
 - I only have to do it once or twice for the series
 - I never had a chance to ask since you created a rockstar patch series
   the first time out of the gate (except for capitalization).

Once I've looked over the whole series, please resend with the subject
lines corrected.

I would specifically mention SoC-specific hard-wiring of irqs here.
Also the fact that the hardwiring unexpectedly bypasses the crossbar.

Please include a ti,irqs-skip example here.

This comment is redundant, perhaps "Skip irqs hardwired to bypass the
crossbar."?

thx,
