We are -really- re-inventing interrupts and/or notifiers here, which
I find a tad annoying..
Agree. This is ugly. We could have just used the regular interrupt
mechanism if the firmware didn't use shared rtas call and interrupt
to report multiple types of events.
A notifier wouldn't have worked ?
Yes. A notifier should have worked. Will change to use a notifier for
the chain.
Cheers,
Ben.
