I'm a little concerned that this is all going through for v3.17 without
a {Reviewed,Acked}-by from Marc or anyone working with GIC{,v2m}.

While his comments on v1 have been addressed, he has not had a chance to
acknowledge the solutions. I appreciate Marc's holiday is unfortunately
timed.

I also have an open concern with the binding with regard to the
orthogonality of GICV GICH and the MSI registers.

Suravee, do you need this urgently for v3.17? I was under the impression
that we wouldn't have full PCIe support by then.

Cheers,
Mark.
