Merge tag 'irq-fixes-4.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms into irq/urgent
Pull irqchip/irqdomain updates for 4.11-rc2 from Marc Zyngier - irqchip/crossbar: Some type tidying up - irqchip/gicv3-its: Workaround for a Qualcomm erratum - irqdomain: Compile for for systems that don't use CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN Fixed up minor conflict in the crossbar driver.

+ needs one address range. Sorting must be done in
+ increasing order according to datasheet, i.e.
+ TSC1, TSC2, ...
+- clocks : Must contain a reference to the functional clock.
+- #thermal-sensor-cells : must be <1>.
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- interrupts : interrupts routed to the TSC (3 for H3 and M3-W)
+- power-domain : Must contain a reference to the power domain. This

+ is part of a controllable power domain.

+4) Locking between applications
+
+Certain operations on the resctrl filesystem, composed of read/writes
+to/from multiple files, must be atomic.
+
+As an example, the allocation of an exclusive reservation of L3 cache
+involves:
+
+ 1. Read the cbmmasks from each directory
+ 2. Find a contiguous set of bits in the global CBM bitmask that is clear
+ in any of the directory cbmmasks
+ 3. Create a new directory
+ 4. Set the bits found in step 2 to the new directory "schemata" file
+
+If two applications attempt to allocate space concurrently then they can
+end up allocating the same bits so the reservations are shared instead of
+exclusive.
+
+To coordinate atomic operations on the resctrlfs and to avoid the problem
+above, the following locking procedure is recommended:
+
+Locking is based on flock, which is available in libc and also as a shell
+script command
+
+Write lock:
+
+ A) Take flock(LOCK_EX) on /sys/fs/resctrl
+ B) Read/write the directory structure.
+ C) funlock
+
+Read lock:
+
+ A) Take flock(LOCK_SH) on /sys/fs/resctrl
+ B) If success read the directory structure.
+ C) funlock
+
+Example with bash:
+
+# Atomically read directory structure
+$ flock -s /sys/fs/resctrl/ find /sys/fs/resctrl
+
+# Read directory contents and create new subdirectory
+
+$ cat create-dir.sh
+find /sys/fs/resctrl/ > output.txt
+mask = function-of(output.txt)
+mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/newres/
+echo mask > /sys/fs/resctrl/newres/schemata
+
+$ flock /sys/fs/resctrl/ ./create-dir.sh
+
+Example with C:
+
+/*
