Introduce the advanced extended interrupt controllers (AVECINTC). This
feature will allow each core to have 256 independent interrupt vectors
and MSI interrupts can be independently routed to any vector on any CPU.
The whole topology of irqchips in LoongArch machines looks like this if
AVECINTC is supported:

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.
