note_interrupt wants to be called with the combined result of all
handlers called, not with the last one. If it's a shared interrupt
then the last handler might return IRQ_NONE often enough to trigger
the spurious dectector which turns off a perfectly fine working
interrupt line. Bug was introduced in commit 1277a532(genirq: Simplify
handle_irq_event()).
Yes, I really messed up there. First the variable ret should not have
been named differently to avoid similarity with retval. Second it
should have been declared in the do {} loop.
Rename it to res and move it into the do {} loop and vanish under a
huge brown paperbag.
