RISC-V interrupt controllers for wired interrupts are platform devices
and hence their driver will be probed late. Also, APLIC which is one
such interrupt controller can not be probed early since it needs MSI
services. This needs a probing order between the interrupt controller
driver and the device drivers.
_DEP is typically used to indicate such dependencies. However, the
dependency may be already available like GSI mapping. Hence, instead of
an explicit _DEP, architecture can find the implicit dependencies and
add to the dependency list.
For RISC-V, add the dependencies for below use cases.
1) For devices which has IRQ resource, find out the interrupt controller
using GSI number map and add the dependency.
2) For PCI host bridges:
a) If _PRT indicate PCI link devices, add dependency on the link
device.
b) If _PRT indicates GSI, find out the interrupt controller
using GSI number map and add the dependency.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
