Subject: rtc-at91rm9200: avoid spurious irqs
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~608
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=449321b39f6c6ebfa15d6da24f134240bd51db29;p=linux-2.6

rtc-at91rm9200: avoid spurious irqs

This fixes kernel http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11112 (bogus
RTC update IRQs reported) for rtc-at91rm9200 by scrubbing old IRQ status
before enabling IRQs.

It also removes nonfunctional periodic IRQ support from this driver;
only update IRQs are reported, or provided by the hardware.

I suspect some other RTCs probably have versions of #11112; it's easy to
overlook, since most non-RTC drivers don't care about spurious IRQs:
they're not reported to userspace.
