Hmm, that sounds like a problem, but the explanation is a bit unclear
to me. AFAICS you are saying that the only callbacks which are
called during the IRQ request/release are the irq_enable(), right? If
so then the only reason why we haven't got a problem reported due to
that so far is that the IRQs actually unmasked by default.
In anyway I'd suggest to join someone from the kernel IRQs-related
subsystem to this discussion to ask their opinion whether the IRQs
setup procedure is supposed to work like you say and the irq_enable
shall actually also unmask IRQs.
Thomas, Jason, Mark, could you give us your comment about the issue?
