I would have called this CONFIG_CPU_V7M_NUM_IRQ to match the already
existing CPU_V7M symbol.

Other than that:

Who do you target to apply this series?

That's better indeed.
It will be changed in v3.

I guess it should go through Russell's Patch Tracking System?

Sorry, I answered your question too quickly.
I meant this patch should go through Russell's Patch Tracking System.

For the other patches, I think it should be picked by their respective
maintainers.
Or I can create an immutable tag (on github or kernel.org?) that will
be merged by the different sub-systems?
What would you advise?

Thanks,
Maxime

Depends on the interdependencies of your patches. If each maintainer can
just pick up the patches affecting his area on top of (say) 4.0-rc1 that
would be good.
