I think we should add a proper interrupt controller driver for the per-hart
interrupt controllers, as doing this within the other drivers is ugly -- for
example, there's no reason an MMIO timer or interrupt controller driver should
be toggling these bits.

I have always been in support of having per-hart interrupt controller driver.

I will rebase my RISC-V INTC driver upon latest kernel and send it again.
Of course, now the situation has changed the RISC-V INTC driver will
have to consider NOMMU kernel as well.

The last version of RISC-V INTC driver can be found in riscv_intc_v2
branch of https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git

Thanks. I think I saw some patches go by, so let's talk over there.

I'd argue this actually fixes the M-mode stuff, since that's the first place
this issue shows up. I've queued this with

Fixes: a4c3733d32a7 ("riscv: abstract out CSR names for supervisor vs machine mode")

instead, as that's the first commit that will actually write to MIE and
therefor the first commit that will actually exhibit bad behavior. It also has
the advantage of making the patch apply on older trees, which should make life
easier for the stable folks.

Sure, no problem.

I consider this a bugfix, so I'm targeting it for RCs. It's on fixes and
should go up this week.

Thanks!
