    genirq: Introduce IRQF_COND_ONESHOT and use it in pinctrl-amd · c2ddeb29
    Rafael J. Wysocki authored
    There is a problem when a driver requests a shared interrupt line to run a
    threaded handler on it without IRQF_ONESHOT set if that flag has been set
    already for the IRQ in question by somebody else.  Namely, the request
    fails which usually leads to a probe failure even though the driver might
    have worked just fine with IRQF_ONESHOT, but it does not want to use it by
    default.  Currently, the only way to handle this is to try to request the
    IRQ without IRQF_ONESHOT, but with IRQF_PROBE_SHARED set and if this fails,
    try again with IRQF_ONESHOT set.  However, this is a bit cumbersome and not
    very clean.
    
    When commit 7a36b901 ("ACPI: OSL: Use a threaded interrupt handler for
    SCI") switched the ACPI subsystem over to using a threaded interrupt
    handler for the SCI, it had to use IRQF_ONESHOT for it because that's
    required due to the way the SCI handler works (it needs to walk all of the
    enabled GPEs before the interrupt line can be unmasked). The SCI interrupt
    line is not shared with other users very often due to the SCI handling
    overhead, but on sone systems it is shared and when the other user of it
    attempts to install a threaded handler, a flags mismatch related to
    IRQF_ONESHOT may occur.
    
    As it turned out, that happened to the pinctrl-amd driver and so commit
    4451e8e8 ("pinctrl: amd: Add IRQF_ONESHOT to the interrupt request")
    attempted to address the issue by adding IRQF_ONESHOT to the interrupt
    flags in that driver, but this is now causing an IRQF_ONESHOT-related
    mismatch to occur on another system which cannot boot as a result of it.
    
    Clearly, pinctrl-amd can work with IRQF_ONESHOT if need be, but it should
    not set that flag by default, so it needs a way to indicate that to the
    interrupt subsystem.
    
    To that end, introdcuce a new interrupt flag, IRQF_COND_ONESHOT, which will
    only have effect when the IRQ line is shared and IRQF_ONESHOT has been set
    for it already, in which case it will be promoted to the latter.
    
    This is sufficient for drivers sharing the interrupt line with the SCI as
    it is requested by the ACPI subsystem before any drivers are probed, so
    they will always see IRQF_ONESHOT set for the interrupt in question.
