To make the patch more readable, I'd suggest adding function prototypes
at the start of the file, and not re-arranging the code. That'll remove
the large cut/paste block in the diff. I wouldn't point out this trivial
issue except that I think this needs a respin for the minor issue I
raise below.

Since this is now a public API, it should probably be named better. How
about bcm2835_irqchip_init()?

Aside from that,
Acked-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@wwwdotorg•org>

I don't foresee any likely conflicts with anything I'll stage for 3.8 in
the bcm2835 tree, so feel free to take this through the irq tree or
directly into arm-soc as appropriate.
