Sorry the delay I have been moving house!

Anyway, although I would be interesting in reviving and completing the
work on cti, realistically, I am not sure when I would get to it now. I
do have the latest code on my github account [1]. However, probably
still needs more work before it is ready for the mainline in sorting out
the DT bindings, etc. I was also thinking about making the cti look like
a interrupt controller in DT as that is the way it is currently being
used. However, I am not implemented that but should not be much work.

Cheers
Jon
