I'll do patches for everything above that's not drivers/soc or
include/soc and hopefully we can hear from someone at NXP on the plans
for getting the soc parts enabled on arm.
I think the removal of the NO_IRQ references is a requirement for
getting the drivers working properly on ARM, as the OF platform
code will use '0' for invalid IRQs.
OK. So the #define NO_IRQ (-1) in arch/arm/include/asm/irq.h is a red
herring and should be ignored for anything modern?
Correct. There are a couple of older (non-DT) platforms that still rely on it,
and I also have patches for those, which I intend to revisit at some point.
