[PATCH 3.19 21/75] clockevents: sun5i: Fix setup_irq init sequence

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Yongbae Park <yongbae2@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 1096be084ac59927158ce80ff1d31c33eed0e565 upstream.

The interrupt is enabled before the handler is set. Even this bug
did not appear, it is potentially dangerous as it can lead to a
NULL pointer dereference.

Fix the error by enabling the interrupt after
clockevents_config_and_register() is called.
