Merge branch 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull core irq changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes:
- generic-irqchip driver additions, cleanups and fixes
- 3 new irqchip drivers: ARMv7-M NVIC, TB10x and Marvell Orion SoCs
- irq_get_trigger_type() simplification and cross-arch cleanup
- various cleanups, simplifications
- documentation updates"
