Subject: [PATCH 2/3] irq: Add IRQ_TYPE_DEFAULT for use by PIC drivers
Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2012 13:29:42 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334892582.31646.1.camel@pasglop> (raw)

This is meant typically to allow a PIC driver's irq domain map() callback
to establish sane defaults for the interrupt (and make sure that the HW
and the irq_desc are in sync as far as the trigger is concerned).

The irq core may not call the set_trigger callback if it thinks the
trigger is already set to the right setting, so we need to ensure new
descriptors are properly synchronized with the hardware.
