Oh dear, this was my development branch. Thanks for the heads up! I just
trimmed it to match the series I posted.
Please, re-fetch it now and then go wash your hands in case you looked
at any of the top patches ;-)

Cheers,
Andre.

During development of the Dom0 ITS MSI support last year we realised
that the existing GIC interrupt controller emulation has some shortcomings.
After some tries to fix those in the existing code, it was agreed upon
that the problems are fundamental and a new implementation based on the
"new VGIC" in KVM is the best choice.
This is the first drop of this new VGIC implementation.


Just in case you are *really* interested:
The code can also be found in the vgic-new/rfc branch here:
git://linux-arm.org/xen-ap.git
http://www.linux-arm.org/git?p=xen-ap.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/vgic-new/rfc


This branch seems to contain more than this series. Anything we should 
care in it?


Cheers,
