[patch 5/8] genirq: do not leave interupts enabled on free_irq

[Greg KH]

2.6.23-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 89d694b9dbe769ca1004e01db0ca43964806a611

The default_disable() function was changed in commit:

 76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21
 genirq: do not mask interrupts by default

It removed the mask function in favour of the default delayed
interrupt disabling. Unfortunately this also broke the shutdown in
free_irq() when the last handler is removed from the interrupt for
those architectures which rely on the default implementations. Now we
can end up with a enabled interrupt line after the last handler was
removed, which can result in spurious interrupts.

Fix this by adding a default_shutdown function, which is only
installed, when the irqchip implementation does provide neither a
shutdown nor a disable function.
