    net: ipa: do not clear interrupt in gsi_channel_start() · 195ef57f
    Alex Elder authored
    In gsi_channel_start() there is harmless-looking comment "Clear the
    channel's event ring interrupt in case it's pending".  The intent
    was to avoid getting spurious interrupts when first bringing up a
    channel.
    
    However we now use channel stop/start to implement suspend and
    resume, and an interrupt pending at the time we resume is actually
    something we don't want to ignore.
    
    The very first time we bring up the channel we do not expect an
    interrupt to be pending, and even if it were, the effect would
    simply be to schedule NAPI on that channel, which would find nothing
    to do, which is not a problem.
    
    Stop clearing any pending IEOB interrupt in gsi_channel_start().
    That leaves one caller of the trivial function gsi_isr_ieob_clear().
    Get rid of that function and just open-code it in gsi_isr_ieob()
    instead.
    
    This fixes a problem where suspend/resume IPA v4.2 would get stuck
    when resuming after a suspend.
