I assume the IRQ guys will take care of this.

For the drivers/pci/ part:

Acked-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx>

But I would update the commit logs to consistently capitalize
initialisms.  Currently it's a mix of "PCI", "pci", "MSI", "msi",
"numa", "irq", "io", etc.

Also, if you rewrap the 2/2 commit log to fit in 75 columns, you won't
have a line that becomes 83 columns when "git log" indents it.  Maybe
also indent quoted things like the "ls" output by 2 spaces and add a
blank line before so the text doesn't run into them.
