Hi Marc,

I want to break the dependency between ARCH_MEDIATEK and CIRQ/SYSIRQ,
because we need to follow the GKI.

Could I add the MTK_CIRQ and MTK_SYSIRQ into defconfig?
(arch/arm64/config/defconfig)

It would ensures all platform are executable.

e.g.
--- a/arch/arm64/configs/defconfig
+++ b/arch/arm64/configs/defconfig

 CONFIG_QCOM_PDC=y
+CONFIG_MTK_SYSIRQ=m
+CONFIG_MTK_CIRQ=y
 CONFIG_RESET_QCOM_AOSS=y

--- a/drivers/irqchip/Kconfig
+++ b/drivers/irqchip/Kconfig
@@ -572,4 +572,18 @@ config LOONGSON_PCH_MSI
        help

P.S I'll make the irq-mtk-sysirq driver as a loadable kernel module for
GKI

Thanks
