This flag is a NOOP and can be removed now.

I have the same concerns here as I had for the sparc case.

Some of these drivers might be using IRQF_DISABLED to make sure the
IRQ cannot be delivered until it is explicitly enabled via an
enable_irq() call.

How is that being accomodated now?

Again IRQF_DISABLED never ever had that functionality. 

Thanks,
