This description is no longer accurate.

Currently I see the informational message about LP2 being disabled
rather early in PCI setup. That's probably caused by the .map_irq()
being called during enumeration/fixup. So effectively this disables LP2
as soon as a PCI device is found, whether it needs the IRQ or not. But I
don't think we can do any better than this, so that's fine.

I plan to eventually (3.13 perhaps) support building the pci-tegra
driver as a module since most or all prerequisites are now in place, so
we'll need to export this function eventually. But we can do that when
we actually need it. Perhaps somebody will find a better fix for the LP2
problem until then.

That file doesn't exist in any tree I have. Perhaps it's a new file and
you forgot to add it in this commit?

I've added that file locally to test the patch and verified that it
works around the issue on TrimSlice while not causing any regressions on
Beaver (it doesn't run any code on !ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC anyway, but better
safe than sorry).

So with the missing header file added:
