Nope.

  Symbol: HAVE_KVM_IRQCHIP [=y]
  Type  : bool
  Defined at virt/kvm/Kconfig:7
  Selected by [m]:
    - KVM_XICS [=y] && VIRTUALIZATION [=y] && KVM_BOOK3S_64 [=m] && !KVM_MPIC [=n]
  Selected by [n]:
    - KVM_MPIC [=n] && VIRTUALIZATION [=y] && KVM [=y] && E500 [=n]

leads to this and a whole pile of other errors

arch/powerpc/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/irqchip.c: In function ‘kvm_irq_map_gsi’:
arch/powerpc/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/irqchip.c:31:35: error: invalid use of undefined type ‘struct kvm_irq_routing_table’
   31 |         if (irq_rt && gsi < irq_rt->nr_rt_entries) {

Side topic, please don't post a new version/series in-reply-to a different series.
b4 also gets confused in this case, e.g. it tried to grab the original patch.  b4
has also made me really lazy, heaven forbid I actually had to manually grab these
from mutt :-)
