Thank you, that was important to check.

I do not think there is much we can do, unless we convert pci_fixup_irqs
as per [1] but keep x86 code as-is (for now), there is a way to do it
it is just a matter of taking Matt's series and refactor it, there are
potential problems (not on xgene, but on other ARM platforms
where the IRQ legacy routing is done through pci_fixup_irqs()).
