Yes it now only depends on split EOI/priority drop changes since
"genirq: Saving/restoring the irqchip state of an irq line" now is

Yes I will respin according to new versions. I am currently using a
rebased version of Marc's original RFC "ARM: Forwarding physical
interrupts to a guest VM" (http://lwn.net/Articles/603514/) which is a
superset of [PATCH] genirq: Add support for priority-drop/deactivate
interrupt controllers.
