Thanks.

I have added this into a new intc-external-irq branch of
the renesas tree on kernel.org and thus queued it up for v3.10.

I have also added the following patches to that branch:

irqchip: irqc: Add DT support
irqchip: intc-irqpin: Initial DT support
ARM: shmobile: Make r8a7779 INTC irqpin platform data static
ARM: shmobile: Make sh73a0 INTC irqpin platform data static
irqchip: Renesas IRQC driver
irqchip: intc-irqpin: GPL header for platform data
irqchip: intc-irqpin: Make use of devm functions
irqchip: intc-irqpin: Add force comments
irqchip: intc-irqpin: Cache mapped IRQ
irqchip: intc-irqpin: Whitespace fixes
ARM: shmobile: INTC External IRQ pin driver on r8a7779
ARM: shmobile: INTC External IRQ pin driver on sh73a0
ARM: shmobile: irq_pin() for static IRQ pin assignment

The intc-external-irq branch is merged into the next branch and
I expect it to appear in linux-next in the not to distant future.

I have removed the topic/intc-external-irq branch from the reneas tree,
the branch where these patches were being staged.
