Hm... I tried to check this in as a separate topic branch, but it
conflicts against both linus and against tip:x86/core, which are the
branches we usually base topic branches on.
I really am not convinced about the whole dyn_array concept, and
*especially* not having divergences between 32 and 64 bits with regards
to sparse IRQs. Furthermore, there are a number of checkpatch errors
for this patch series, most of which appear legit.
So again... any reason to not just have sparse IRQs and be done with it?
