From b8a9a11b976810ba12a43c4fe699a14892c97e52 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sun, 23 Feb 2014 21:40:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Eeh: Kill another abuse of irq_desc commit 91150af3a (powerpc/eeh: Fix unbalanced enable for IRQ) is another brilliant example of trainwreck engineering. The patch "fixes" the issue of an unbalanced call to irq_enable() which causes a prominent warning by checking the disabled state of the interrupt line and call conditionally into the core code. This is wrong in two aspects: 1) The warning is there to tell users, that they need to fix their asymetric enable/disable patterns by finding the root cause and solving it there. It's definitely not meant to work around it by conditionally calling into the core code depending on the random state of the irq line. Asymetric irq_disable/enable calls are a clear sign of wrong usage of the interfaces which have to be cured at the root and not by somehow hacking around it. 2) The abuse of core internal data structure instead of using the proper interfaces for retrieving the information for the 'hack around' irq_desc is core internal and it's clear enough stated. Replace at least the irq_desc abuse with the proper functions and add a big fat comment why this is absurd and completely wrong.
