Merge branch 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A slighlty large fix for a subtle issue in the CPU hotplug code of
  certain ARM SoCs, where the not yet online cpu needs to setup the cpu
  local timer and needs to set the interrupt affinity to itself.
  Setting interrupt affinity to a not online cpu is prohibited and
  therefor the timer interrupt ends up on the wrong cpu, which leads to
  nasty complications.

  The SoC folks tried to hack around that in the SoC code in some more
  than nasty ways.  The proper solution is to have a way to enforce the
  affinity setting to a not online cpu.  The core patch to the genirq
  code provides that facility and the follow up patches make use of it
  in the GIC interrupt controller and the exynos timer driver.

  The change to the core code has no implications to existing users,
  except for the rename of the locked function and therefor the
  necessary fixup in mips/cavium.  Aside of that, no runtime impact is
  possible, as none of the existing interrupt chips implements anything
  which depends on the force argument of the irq_set_affinity()
  callback"
