I fully agree with this. I can issue a second patch for 110 once it's done in 
noarch, but there's no real reason to hurry on this.

I can confirm that the 4.14.110 patch I just pushed for powerpc (for all the 
thousands of you working with PPC) that the use of __ipipe_root_sync and 
sync_root_irqs is equivalent with ARM.
