[PATCH v3 1/2] genirq: Provide irq_gc_{lock_irqsave,unlock_irqrestore}() helpers

Show all headers | View raw

Some irqchip drivers need to take the generic chip lock outside of the
irq context.

Provide the irq_gc_{lock_irqsave,unlock_irqrestore}() helpers to allow
one to disable irqs while entering a critical section protected by
gc->lock.

Note that we do not provide optimized version of these helpers for !SMP,
because they are not called from the hot-path.
