Subject: [patch 00/30] genirq: Treewide hunt for irq descriptor abuse and
 assorted fixes

A recent request to export kstat_irqs() pointed to a copy of the same in
the i915 code, which made me look for further usage of irq descriptors in
drivers.

The usage in drivers ranges from creative to broken in all colours.

irqdesc.h clearly says that this is core functionality and the fact C does
not allow full encapsulation is not a justification to fiddle with it just
because. It took us a lot of effort to make the core functionality provide
what drivers need.

If there is a shortcoming, it's not asked too much to talk to the relevant
maintainers instead of going off and fiddling with the guts of interrupt
descriptors and often enough without understanding lifetime and locking
rules.

As people insist on not respecting boundaries, this series cleans up the
(ab)use and at the end removes the export of irq_to_desc() to make it at
least harder. All legitimate users of this are built in.

While at it I stumbled over some other oddities related to interrupt
counting and cleaned them up as well.

The series applies on top of

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git irq/core

and is also available from git:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git genirq

Thanks,
