So these patches work **only** with the AIC, not with a standard GICv3 without the HW bit in the LR registers and with an unmaskable maintenance IRQ? Because from the commit message from #8 I got the impression that the purpose of the change is to make timers work on a standard GICv3, sans those required architectural features.
