[PATCH v3 1/1] x86/irq: handle chained interrupts during IRQ migration

From: Sundar Iyer
Date: Sun Jun 24 2012 - 23:57:43 EST


Chained interrupt handlers dont have an irqaction and hence are not
handled during migrating interrupts when some cores go offline.

Handle this by introducing a irq_is_chained() check which is based
on the the CHAINED flag being set for such interrupts. fixup_irq()
can then handle such interrupts and not skip them over.

v1: use accessors instead of new variables to identify chained irqs
v2: use a mask of NOREQUEST, NOPROBE, and NOTHREAD accessor flags as per Paul M
v3: use a new accessor called IRQ_CHAINED instead of the mask in v2
