On GICv2 and later, level triggered interrupts are pending when either the interrupt line is asserted or the interrupt was made pending by a GICD_ISPENDRn write. Making a level triggered interrupt pending by software persists until either the interrupt is acknowledged or cleared by writing GICD_ICPENDRn. As long as the interrupt line is asserted, the interrupt is pending in any case.
This logic is transparently implemented in gic_test_pending(). The function combines the "pending" irq_state flag (used for edge triggered interrupts and software requests) and the line status (tracked in the "level" field). Now, writing GICD_ISENABLERn incorrectly set the pending flag if the line of a level triggered interrupt was asserted. This keeps the interrupt pending even if the line is de-asserted after some time. Apparently, the 11MPCore behaves differently. A level triggered interrupt that is disabled does not get pending. Thus we have to retain the get-pending-on-enable logic just for this model. For GICv2 and later, the pending status is fully handled by gic_test_pending() and does not need any special treatment when enabling the level interrupt.
