[PATCH] dmaengine: edma: No need save/restore interrupt flags during spin_lock in IRQ

From: Joel Fernandes
Date: Thu Apr 17 2014 - 01:59:13 EST


The vchan lock in edma_callback is acquired in hard interrupt context. As
interrupts are already disabled, there's no point in save/restoring interrupt
mask bit or cpsr flags.

Get rid of flags local variable and use spin_lock instead of spin_lock_irqsave.
