Hello Lucas,

thanks for taking the time to review my patch.

The same goes for imxdi->irq, I made this a local variable as well.

Are you sure that this would be correct?

My understanding is that we should mask the interrupts by writing 0 into
DIER and set the DryIce to a sane state in di_handle_state() before we
install interrupt handlers.
