I was very vague in previous review. I think the reasons you are switching
from acpi_gicc_is_useable(gicc) to the gicc->flags & ACPI_MADT_ENABLED
needs calling out as I'm fairly sure that this point in the series at least
acpi_gicc_is_usable is same as current upstream:
static inline bool acpi_gicc_is_usable(struct acpi_madt_generic_interrupt *gicc)
{
return gicc->flags & ACPI_MADT_ENABLED;
}
