genirq: Sanitize spurious interrupt detection of threaded irqs
commit 1e77d0a1ed7417d2a5a52a7b8d32aea1833faa6c upstream. Till reported that the spurious interrupt detection of threaded interrupts is broken in two ways: - note_interrupt() is called for each action thread of a shared interrupt line. That's wrong as we are only interested whether none of the device drivers felt responsible for the interrupt, but by calling multiple times for a single interrupt line we account IRQ_NONE even if one of the drivers felt responsible. - note_interrupt() when called from the thread handler is not serialized. That leaves the members of irq_desc which are used for the spurious detection unprotected. To solve this we need to defer the spurious detection of a threaded interrupt to the next hardware interrupt context where we have implicit serialization. If note_interrupt is called with action_ret == IRQ_WAKE_THREAD, we check whether the previous interrupt requested a deferred check. If not, we request a deferred check for the next hardware interrupt and return. If set, we check whether one of the interrupt threads signaled success. Depending on this information we feed the result into the spurious detector. If one primary handler of a shared interrupt returns IRQ_HANDLED we disable the deferred check of irq threads on the same line, as we have found at least one device driver who cared.
