Quite a bit of this series seems related to the question of interrupt controllers being probed "late". I don't see anything specific about *how* late this might be, but from the use of -EPROBE_DEFER in individual drivers (8250_pnp explicitly, and acpi_register_gsi() and pnp_irq() and acpi_pci_irq_enable(), which are called from driver .probe() paths) it seems like interrupt controllers might be detected even after devices that use them. That seems like a fairly invasive change to the driver probe flow. If we really need to do that, I think it might merit a little more background as justification since we haven't had to do it for any other arch yet.
