e2f04e1894 [ARM] 3546/1: PATCH: subtle lost interrupts bug on i.MX
Patch from Matt Reimer

There is a subtle bug in the GPIO interrupt status register
handling in arch/arm/mach-imx/irq.c:imx_gpio_ack_irq(). The
documentation states that a 1 should be written to the relevant bit to
acknowledge a GPIO interrupt, but that is not what the code does.

The problem is that the |= writes back 1s for all the *other*
interrupts represented in the register, so interrupts could get lost.
For example, if interrupts are pending for GPIO B10 and B12, ISR_B
would have the value 0x00001400. Then when the interrupt code handles
GPIO B10, it eventually calls imx_gpio_ack_irq(IRQ_GPIOB(10)), which
effectively does this:

ISR_B |= 1 << 10;

with the result that (0x00001400 | 0x00000400) is written, clearing
the interrupt status bits for *both* GPIO B10 and B12.

The fix is to write 1s only for the interrupts we want to clear.

The same problem seems to be occurring in the DMA code; this patch
does not address those issues.

664399e1fb [ARM] Wrap calls to descriptor handlers
This is part of Thomas Gleixner's generic IRQ patch, which converts
ARM to use the generic IRQ subsystem.  Here, we wrap calls to
desc->handler() in an inline function, desc_handle_irq().  This
reduces the size of Thomas' patch since the changes become more
localised.

7801907b8c [ARM] Change irq_chip wake/type methods to set_wake/set_type
This is part of Thomas Gleixner's generic IRQ patch, which converts
ARM to use the generic IRQ subsystem.  Here, we rename two of the
irq_chip methods - wake becomes set_wake, and type becomes set_type.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
