Also, something to be checked is whether the "PIC muting" is enabled
for the beaglebone. PIC muting is already implemented for the OMAP3
interrupt controller and GPIOS, you simply need to check that the
initialization function (omap3_pic_muter_register) gets called in the
BeagleBone processor initialization.
