I think it would be helpful to outline the reason for wanting these changes in the commit log. Otherwise we don't know the benefit and it's harder to justify making the change since it's not an obvious cleanup. IIRC from [1] there *is* a good reason: you need to use Interrupt Link devices so you can specify "level triggered, active high". Without an Interrupt Link, you would get the default "level triggered, active low" setting, which apparently isn't compatible with GICv2. I assume this fixes a device that previously didn't work correctly, but I don't see the details of that in the bugzilla. I'm a little confused about this. Isn't GICv2 widely used already? How are things working now? Or are there just a lot of broken devices?
