The GPIO IRQ controller is able to generate level triggered
interrupts, however, these were handled by handle_simple_irq so far
which did not take care of IRQ masking. This lead to "nobody cared
(try booting with the "irqpoll" option)" stack traces.

Use the generic interrupt handlers depending on the IRQ type.

Thx

 
Hm, this looks like a problem that could exist in a few more
GPIO drivers. Can you look around and see if there is something
immediately suspicious in drivers/gpio?
Just looked a bit around. There are some which use handle_simple_irq but
also run their handler in threaded/one-shot handler. I guess in that
case it is fine to use the simple_irq handler.

However, those GPIO drivers look suspicious:

gpio-altera.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports edge and level
gpio-bcm-kona.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports only edge
gpio-grgpio.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports edge and level
gpio-intel-mid.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports only edge
gpio-lynxpoint.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports edge and level
gpio-ml-ioh.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports edge and level
gpio-pl061.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports edge and level
gpio-rcar.c: Uses handle_level_irq, supports edge and level
gpio-timberdale.c: Uses handle_simple_irq, supports edge and level
