Hi,

As a heads-up, on v4.9-rc1 I see conflicts at least against
arch/arm64/Kconfig. Luckily git am -3 seems to be able to fix that up
automatically, but this will need to be rebased before the next posting
and/or merging.

Urgh.

Only the secure interrupt (which we do not need) is optional in this
manner, and (hilariously), zero appears to also be a valid GSIV, per
figure 5-24 in the ACPI 6.1 spec.

So, I think that:

(a) we should not bother parsing the secure interrupt
(b) we should drop the check above
(c) we should report the spec issue to the ASWG

Sorry, I willing to do that, but I need to figure out the issue here.
What kind of issue in detail? do you mean that zero should not be valid
for arch timer interrupts?

OK, I think you are referring to "we don't need the secure interrupt",
correct me if I'm wrong (still in jet lag...).

Thanks
Hanjun
