As I mentioned in my reply to 3/8 already: shouldn't this be "bool"?

Is that really needed here? I don't see how this function would fail if
called on a non-mapped IRQ. Also the two current callers would always
fulfil this requirement:
- vgic_process_maintenance() already has a WARN_ON(vgic_irq_is_edge)
- vgic_sync_irq() returns early if it's not a mapped IRQ

Removing this would also allow to pass "int irq" instead of "struct
vgic_lr vlr".

Just an idea, though and not a show-stopper.

Other than that it looks good to me.

Cheers,
Andre.
