    [PATCH] irq-flags: consolidate flags for request_irq · 6e213616
    Thomas Gleixner authored
    The recent interrupt rework introduced bit value conflicts with sparc.
    Instead of introducing new architecture flags mess, move the interrupt SA_
    flags out of the signal namespace and replace them by interrupt related flags.
    
    This allows to remove the obsolete SA_INTERRUPT flag and clean up the bit
    field values.
    
    This patch:
    
    Move the interrupt related SA_ flags out of linux/signal.h and rename them to
    IRQF_ .  This moves the interrupt related flags out of the signal namespace
    and allows to remove the architecture dependencies.
    
    SA_INTERRUPT is not needed by userspace and glibc so it can be removed safely.
    
    The existing SA_ constants are kept for easy transition and will be
    removed after a 6 month grace period.
