That still stands as:

... although I think in this case the implementation changed enough it
probably shouldn't have been kept in v4.

I wonder if it should be IRQCHIP_OF, since it's OF-specific?

For the drivers/clocksource patch I created, I required the
architecture/machine config option to select it rather than making it a
def_bool. Would that be better? I suppose if it's going to be selected
in a lot of places anyway, and since the code will just be dropped if it
isn't used, then making it default to on is reasonable though.

Does it make sense to put that before KERNEL_DTB()? I did in my
drivers/clocksource patch just in case anything depended on KERNEL_DTB
being last along the lines of APPENDED_DTB. That said, now that I think
about it, nothing really should depend on the order...
