Subject: [PATCH] irq: Check if someone is overwriting the irq chip data
Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2011 20:38:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <mailman.14.1307792983.24103.linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org> (raw)

This tries to establish the semantic that one can either
set the chip data to NULL or if it is NULL to some value
but never overwrite a non NULL value.
