I'm a bit annoyed here. Why do we need to do that ? Those Cell machines are going to be real bastards to find and test with, and I don't really see the point... The reason for not resetting the MPIC wasn't -only- about the protected sources, but also because, from memory, some MPIC implementations had issues when toggling the reset lines (pseries I think is one). That's actually why the MPIC_WANTS_RESET flag is working the other way around, only platforms that actually want the reset set it. This is orthogonal to the need to touch or not touch the interrupt sources as set by firmware. Yes, having protected sources probably implies no-reset but the reverse isn't necessarily true.
