Just checked. When the compat layer goes away it will kill about 500
lines. So it's less code with better encapsulation.

Once all genirq archs convert to the generic irq_show_interrupts(),
this will kill another 1000+ lines.

So while this is the first step:

 29 files changed, 1353 insertions(+), 899 deletions(-)

It turns into this end result (mockup):

 129 files changed, 1353 insertions(+), 2400 deletions(-)

Right? Or, more likely, considering all the surrounding code changes, something 
like:

 129 files changed, 4353 insertions(+), 5400 deletions(-)

Did I get the file count right - roughtly how many files are affected throughout all 
architectures? The changes are massively intrusive and widely spread out so we 
cannot do them in one go, right?

Thanks,
