Thanks for the background info. I don't think it really changes anything
that we've discussed though. We still need to mask the IRQ in TLMM all
the time when we're using the PDC and we need to leave it unmasked and
replay edges that the MPM sees when we use the MPM. Should I clean up my
RFC patch and post it to the list? I'd like to see hierarchical gpio
irqs work in general for this problem and also the SSBI/SPMI gpio irq
problem that Linus pointed out last week.
