I found a memory leak, when called request_8xxirq again and again.
This was already fixed for intel cpus, but the bug still exists in ppc
code.
You can easily see that the bug exists, if you see multiple directories
in /proc/irq/ with the same name (drivers which already installed their
irq-handler).
This have already been fixed in recent PPC kernels.
Thanks anyway,
Ben.
