I don't think your patch is right, it seems to me that now
pmf_unregister_irq_client races against pmf_do_irq: what happens when an
interrupt comes in right in the middle of the list_del()?

Yeah, possibly... too late for 2.6.17 tho.

That's ok, we don't have any in-kernel users anyway. Alas the alsa
people will be dissatisfied because they like to ship new drivers for
old kernels or something. Oh well, I don't care.

We still want people to build out-of-tree for 2.6.17 (please keep the
git there for that), as it will take a while before 2.6.18 is here.

The remaining possible bug in the pmf irq code is probably harmless in
99.99% of the cases in practice :)

Ben.
