Hi Linus,

Thanks for the review. I will split it and send v2.

Can you please split this up? It seems like three different patches,
and now they block each other. The threading patch is fine and
I could apply it unless this was mixed up with other stuff.

I'd like Kuninoro and/or Nikolay to have a look at this, so please
CC them on subsequent iterations.
okay
NB: I really like that you move the irq handling to a thread, good
job.

This seems like an u32 or atleast unsigned, and state that its one
bit flag per IRQ. How many GPIO lines are there?
pcf857x driver supports expanders with 8 and 16 gpio lines.

I don't know if that is right.

If this happens you are getting what we call a "spurious IRQ"
and this shall be reported to the IRQ core by returning
IRQ_NONE and handled from there.
While testing I got prints like bad irq and no handler installed.
Now I notice its mostly when the n_latch is not passed properly.

I'm a bit uneasy about this. It feels like its the irqdomain's
responsibility to keep track of whether an IRQ is mapped
or not.
Mainly these expanders dont have an ier sort of registers and if at all the initial value is not set proper then it gives bad irq prints only once per changed bit for which there is no handler.
Should I drop this in v2?


Maybe Grant should have a look at this.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
