genirq: Don't return ENOSYS in irq_chip_retrigger_hierarchy
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
irq_chip_retrigger_hierarchy() returns -ENOSYS if it was not able to
find at least one .irq_retrigger() callback implemented in the IRQ
domain hierarchy.

That's wrong, because check_irq_resend() expects a 0 return value from
the callback in case that the hardware assisted resend was not
possible. If the return value is non zero the core code assumes
hardware resend success and the software resend is not invoked.

This results in lost interrupts on platforms where none of the parent
irq chips in the hierarchy implements the retrigger callback.

This is observable on TI OMAP, where the hierarchy is:

 ARM GIC <- OMAP wakeupgen <- TI Crossbar

Return 0 instead so the software resend mechanism gets invoked.
