For what it's worth a small explanation: The status in the ISR (interrupt status) is updated regardless of whether the IRQ is enabled in the IER (interrupt enable) or not. Actually "enabling DRDY" makes the hardware start raising the interrupt line on DRDY event if it's the case. but DRDY bit is still being asserted in the ISR. It works like this because someone might want to write some simple driver without IRQ, just poll the ISR for the status. One other thing, in my driver, at91-sama5d2_adc, I had the same issue, and I am reading the DRDY in the EOC part after waking up from the wait. This makes the IRQ handler shorter by a few hundred cycles : read LCDR in the userspace-called read_raw. Do you want me to have a patch at some point to move the LCDR read in the IRQ handler for at91-sama5d2_adc as well ?
