This patch series introduces ability to handle IRQs in userspace. This is currently necessary for ARM KVM in order to be able to use virtual CP15 timer without in-kernel irqchip. This allows to use KVM on machines with either broken vGIC or custom interrupt controller, like Raspberry Pi 2. The API is designed to be as much architecture-agnostic is possible. Currently it actually supports only a single IRQ, but it can be easily extended to accomodate more.
