Tejun,
Could you please merge Christoph's patch to your percpu tree
(the patch is attached below for your convenience, it is a fixup
for "irqchips: Replace __this_cpu_ptr uses" patch present in
for-3.18-consistent-ops and for-next branches)?
Best regards,

Subject: [PATCH] irqchip: Properly fetch the per cpu offset
The raw_cpu_read() conversion dropped the fetch of the offset
from base->percpu_base in gic_get_percpu_base.
b.zolnierkie:
This fixes kernel panic on ARM Exynos4 SoCs (i.e. ODROID U3
board).
