Whichever you're happiest with. If you'd like me to rebase them & resubmit
that's fine.

I see the conflict with patch 6 atop tip/irq/core - it's because tip/irq/core
is based upon v4.14-rc2 which doesn't have commit a08588ea486a
("irqchip/mips-gic: Fix shifts to extract register fields") that went into
v4.14-rc3. The correct resolution is to keep the patches version of things (ie.
delete the block of code).

Thanks,
    Paul
