I have preliminary code ready for submission, so I only need to wrap it
up for posting. However it requires some additional infrastructure shared
with other parts of the kernel, so it will be a small patch series again,
and due to code dependencies I'll include support for another PIRQ router
as well as some clean-ups, because they all need to be applied in order.
With that in place we should have complete coverage for Intel chipsets.
Moreover based on the ALi M1533 datasheet I have also tracked down I have
noticed we have bugs in the handling for the other ALi chipsets, which I
seem unable to satisfactorily resolve without a copy of the ALi M1563
datasheet I don't have. I've noticed Nvidia does continue having at least
some ALi-related stuff online, so chances are they have retained the ALi
legacy internally. I have therefore requested a copy of the M1563
datasheet and will likely extend the patch series accordingly, whether I
do or do not receive the document.
Stay tuned.
Maciej
