+Subject: [PATCH] feature: aarch64: add the regular to get the correct irq
+ class on hisi board
+
+First, get the full irq desc name, include that the name split by blank, just like
+(hisi_sas_v2_hw sata). We use the irq type to mark the begin of the name.
+
+Second, for hisi bord, we consider to match the IRQ_SCSI class (which the
+irqbalance service concerned, and the eth device match follow the
+open community rule) by keywords group hisi & sas or hisi & sata.

+Subject: [PATCH] feature: add new irq migrate rule to avoid high cpu irq load
+
+By the old irq migrate rule, the irqs cannot be moved if the adjustment_load will become smaller then
+the min_load after moving irq. However, we can accept that the delta load become smaller after moving irq.
