This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled

    irqchip: gic: Fix core ID calculation when topology is read from DT

to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree 
which can be found at:

 http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue

This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.6.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please 
reply to this email.

Subject: irqchip: gic: Fix core ID calculation when topology is read from DT

commit 29e697b11853d3f83b1864ae385abdad4aa2c361 upstream.

Certain GIC implementation, namely those found on earlier, single
cluster, Exynos SoCs, have registers mapped without per-CPU banking,
which means that the driver needs to use different offset for each CPU.

Currently the driver calculates the offset by multiplying value returned
by cpu_logical_map() by CPU offset parsed from DT. This is correct when
CPU topology is not specified in DT and aforementioned function returns
core ID alone. However when DT contains CPU topology, the function
changes to return cluster ID as well, which is non-zero on mentioned
SoCs and so breaks the calculation in GIC driver.

This patch fixes this by masking out cluster ID in CPU offset
calculation so that only core ID is considered. Multi-cluster Exynos
SoCs already have banked GIC implementations, so this simple fix should
be enough.
