This patch series focuses on improving the machine_kexec_mask_interrupts()
function by consolidating its implementation and optimizing its behavior to
avoid redundant interrupt masking.
Patch Summary:
[PATCH v6 1/2] Move machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() to kernel/irq/kexec.c,
removing duplicate architecture-specific implementations.
[PATCH v6 2/2] Refine machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() to avoid re-masking
already-masked interrupts, resolving specific warnings
triggered in GPIO IRQ flows.
Changes between v5 and v6:
- Change GENERIC_IRQ_KEXEC_CLEAR_VM_FORWARD to not be user selectable.
Changes between v4 and v5:
- The function machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() has been moved
from kernel/kexec_core.c to a new file kernel/irq/kexec.c.
- A new configuration option, GENERIC_IRQ_KEXEC_CLEAR_VM_FORWARD, has been
added.
- The parameters for the machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() function have
been defined in reverse Christmas Tree style.
- The comment explaining the call to irq_set_irqchip_state() has been
improved for clarity.
- The phrase 'This patch' has been removed from the commit message.
Changes between v3 and v4:
- Add missing <linux/irqdesc.h> and <linux/irq.h> includes.
