OK.
I will add this comment.

OK.
I will fix it as you guide.

No, there is no need to do it.
Without this, we can use 3 RCs by adding a node of 3rd RC to dt file.

OK.
I will use '__get_free_pages(GFP_KERNEL, 0))' as Thierry guide.

Sure, I will consider using irq_domain method.

Sorry, I cannot understand exactly. :-(
I will look into it.
I really appreciate your comments. :-)
