I have always been in support of having per-hart interrupt controller driver.

I will rebase my RISC-V INTC driver upon latest kernel and send it again.
Of course, now the situation has changed the RISC-V INTC driver will
have to consider NOMMU kernel as well.

The last version of RISC-V INTC driver can be found in riscv_intc_v2
branch of https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git

Sure, no problem.
