ARM: 7377/1: vic: re-read status register before dispatching each IRQ…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
… handler

handle_IRQ may briefly cause interrupts to be re-enabled during soft IRQ
processing on the exit path, leading to nested handling of VIC interrupts.

Since the current code does not re-read the VIC_IRQ_STATUS register, this
can lead to multiple invocations of the same interrupt handler and
spurious interrupts to be reported.

This patch changes the VIC interrupt dispatching code to re-read the
status register each time, avoiding duplicate invocations of the same
handler.
