From: Wang Dongsheng <dongsheng.w...@freescale.com> Currently MPIC provides .mask, but not .disable. This means that effectively disable_irq() soft-disables the interrupt, and you get a .mask call if an interrupt actually occurs.
I'm not sure if this was intended as a performance benefit (it seems common to omit .disable on powerpc interrupt controllers, but nowhere else), but it interacts badly with threaded/workqueue interrupts (including KVM reflection). In such cases, where the real interrupt handler does a disable_irq_nosync(), schedules defered handling, and returns, we get two interrupts for every real interrupt. The second interrupt does nothing but see that IRQ_DISABLED is set, and decide that it would be a good idea to actually call .mask.
