It's true that your v5 series only changes xilinx from using hwirq 0-3
to 0-4 (with 0 being unused in both cases, and the addition of 4
fixing the "INTD doesn't work" bug).

However, I *would* like to see this issue cleaned up consistently
across all our drivers.  I mooted a couple ideas in [1], but nobody
seemed interested.  If I merged your series as-is, there would be even
less interest.
