Please remove the changes for the Wolfson drivers, as I said in my
previous mails if you insist that this must be changed in 2.6.37 I would
much rather cherry-pick the existing changes over into 2.6.37 than have
them unusuable on SH for a release (and we'd need to fix -next to remove
the dependency anyway).  

If you're checking this stuff it'd be good to also take a look at
drivers/gpio - there's a bunch of irq_chips in there too.  I would also
urge you to also contact the maintainers for the relevant drivers while
doing these checks, I suspect quite a few people aren't aware of the new
APIs yet.
