Ok , will do if we agree to have this series as per comment on other patch.

One other confusing observation I have is that "irq_count" from platform code is given precedence over "last-interrupt-source" in device-tree.
Should not device-tree should have precedence otherwise there is no point using " last-interrupt-source" if platform code passes "irq_count" in mpic_alloc().
