Subject: [PATCH v2 03/28] ARM: gic: Export irq chip functions

Some systems combine the GIC with an external interrupt controller.
On these systems it may be necessary to update both the GIC
registers
and the external controller's registers to control IRQ behavior.
Export the irq chip functions so that these systems can define a
custom irq chip that calls into the GIC handlers.

Instead of exporting the GIC library, I think we could add the
flexibility with slightly different approach.
Have few common arm patches mainly for PM.
Will post them shortly. Have a look at them.
