Hi Pavel,

I also have an implementation of GSI routing on ARM, basically a rebase
of my old/first implementation of irqfd
(https://patches.linaro.org/32261/) based on irqchip gsi routing & qemu
part (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-07/msg01090.html).

I will repost today as a base of discussion for evolutions.

Best Regards

Eric
