Note that I have held onto the patch[1] that actually *removes* 
gic-arch_extn
from the GIC code, just in case we need to perform a last minute 
revert.
We can merge that one patch later, once the dust has settled (I don't
expect much noise, but who knows...).

Well, I'll be thanking you for getting this merged, as well as the 
various
maintainers who have contributed reviews, fixes and improvements to 
this
most disruptive series. This is teamwork! ;-)

Cheers,
