Should I also resend > patch for adding cache along with vector and interrupt. I'd suggest for you to send a separate patch for the cache bits first (that way it's not held up by other dependencies) - and keep the vector and irq bits in their respective patches. I.e. when we add new generic events, we want to enable it in the full tool-space in a single patch.
