Subject: [PATCH -rt][RESEND] fix preempt hardirqs on OMAP
Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2006 08:35:45 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061210163545.488430000@mvista.com> (raw)

This should fix hardirq threading when the chained handler disables an interrupt 
while setting IRQ_PENDING. Which happens on ARM OMAP. It also has the effect of 
re-running the interrupt on IRQ_PENDING, which would normally be handled inside
the chained handler. Since this happens inside a thread the chained handler will
just wake up the thread multiple times, leaving the thread to actually rerun the
interrupt.
