Got a version that applies to mainline GIT?

At a quick glance it looks like these patches don't cover
set_irq_chained_handler(), which would be trouble since
__setup_irq() doesn't get called in those cases.

Hmm, I did not think about chained handlers where the demux handler
needs to run in a thread as well. Usually demux handlers just have a
fast path kicking the particular real handlers.

I looked at the code in twl4030-irq.c and I don't think that the demux
handler needs to be setup as a chained handler at all.

Just register it as a standard handler and let it wakeup the other irq
threads or is there a particular requirement that the demuxed handlers
need to run in the same thread context as the demux handler itself ?

Thanks,
