Subject: Re: [PATCH] Add ifdef in irqchip struct for x86 only	structures

Hmm... so now begins the conflict with userspace and kernel space header
sharing ;-)

So the issue (which can be easily fixed) is that CONFIG_X86 is not
recognized in any userspace apps. While __i386__ & __x86_64__ are. Now
this can easily be added to our build system. But it does show the
problem.

Also there are other headers in include/linux that use the same if
defined method that I used (actually checked to see if anyone had done
it in there).
