Drivers should not use NO_IRQ; moreover, some architectures don't have it nowadays. '0' is the 'no irq' case. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <redacted>Acked-by: Alan Cox <redacted>In case if we don't want a "band-aid fix" for 3.2, here is the patch that just does the proper fix (w/ a risk to break minor architectures).This is now broken on ARM where, for good or bad, NO_IRQ currently is used and is -1. How do we resolve it?One option is to test this patch on a board that is now broken: http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/10/290Oh, actually, reading my own patch: "ARM defines NO_IRQ to -1, but OF code relies on IRQ domains support, which returns correct ('0') value in 'no irq' case. So everything should be fine."
Ahh. Forget it, the remark was for the of/irq.c fix itself. So, we need the http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/10/290 fix. Otherwise the driver is indeed broken for ARM. Would be great if somebody could test it. Thanks, -- Anton Vorontsov Email: cbouatmailru@gmail.com
