Ah, not the whole lot is needed, only these (in the order):

irq_work: Introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt()
irq_work: Force raised irq work to run on irq work interrupt
x86: Tell irq work about self IPI support
arm: Tell irq work about self IPI support

You've applied them on your previous 3.17-stable release. They
just lacked stable tags upstream because we decided to backport them
after they got merged so you cherry-picked them directly :-)


Thanks!
