[PATCH 30/68] TTY: simserial, remove support of shared interrupts

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Mon Mar 05 2012 - 08:57:34 EST


It never worked there. The ISR was never written for that kind of
stuff. So remove all that crap with a hash of linked lists and pass
the pointer directly to the ISR.

BTW this answers the question there:
* I don't know exactly why they don't use the dev_id opaque data
* pointer instead of this extra lookup table

-> Because they thought they will support more devices bound to a
single interrupt w/o IRQF_SHARED. They would need exactly the hash
there.

What I don't understand is rebinding of the interrupt in the shutdown
path. They perhaps meant to do just synchronize_irq? In any case, this
is all gone and free_irq there properly.

By removing the hash we save some bits (exactly NR_IRQS * 8 bytes of
.bss and over a kilo of .text):
before:
text data bss dec hex filename
19600 320 8227 28147 6df3 ../a/ia64/arch/ia64/hp/sim/simserial.o
after:
text data bss dec hex filename
18568 320 28 18916 49e4 ../a/ia64/arch/ia64/hp/sim/simserial.o

Note that a shared interrupt could not work too. request_irq requires
data parameter to be non-NULL. So the whole IRQ_T exercise was
pointless.

Finally, this helps us remove another two members of async_struct :).
