It's arguable that this irq_set_irq_type(,NONE) shouln't be there but
still ... it's been around for ever and things worked :-) So something
-else- is causing the problem and I'd like to understand what exactly.
AFAICS before a09b659cd68c10ec6a30cb91ebd2c327fcd5bfe5
irq_set_irq_type(,NONE) was actually a no-op.
So I'm still a bit baffled... ie, I understand some of what's happening
but not why it breaks things, I haven't yet managed to reproduce but I
haven't tried too hard just yet (was away from the HW) :
Allright, I have a repro-case, I'll dig.

Cheers,
Ben.
