The GICv5 architecture implements the Interrupt Wire Bridge (IWB) in order to support wired interrupts that cannot be connected directly to an IRS and instead uses the ITS to translate a wire event into an IRQ signal. Add the wired-to-MSI IWB driver to manage IWB wired interrupts. An IWB is connected to an ITS and it has its own deviceID for all interrupt wires that it manages; the IWB input wire number must be exposed to the ITS as an eventID with a 1:1 mapping. This eventID is not programmable and therefore requires a new msi_alloc_info_t flag to make sure the ITS driver does not allocate an eventid for the wire but rather it uses the msi_alloc_info_t.hwirq number to gather the ITS eventID.

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.
