Re: [PATCH] irq: export handle_simple_irq, irq_modify_status, irq_to_desc, irq_alloc_descs and irq_free_descs

[Jonathan Cameron <jic23@cam.ac.uk>]

Hi Thomas/All,

Any feedback on this patch?  We have a lot of code dependent on this and
with the merge window approaching would like to know if this will be going
in or not.

Thanks and sorry for pestering!
