dm9000: clean up edge-triggered irq compatibility
DM9000 uses level-triggered interrupts. Some systems (PXA270) only support edge-triggered interrupts on GPIOs. Some changes are necessary to ensure that interrupts are not triggered while the GPIO interrupt is masked or we will miss the interrupt forever. * Make some helper functions called dm9000_mask_interrupts() and dm9000_unmask_interrupts() for readability. * dm9000_init_dm9000(): ensure that this function always leaves interrupts masked regardless of the state when it entered the function. This is primarily to support the situation in dm9000_open where the logic used to go: dm9000_open() dm9000_init_dm9000() unmask interrupts request_irq() If an interrupt occurred between unmasking the interrupt and requesting the irq, it would be missed forever as the edge event would never be seen by the GPIO hardware in the PXA270. This allows us to change the logic to: dm9000_open() dm9000_init_dm9000() dm9000_mask_interrupts() request_irq() dm9000_unmask_interrupts() * dm9000_timeout(), dm9000_drv_resume(): Add the missing dm9000_unmask_interrupts() now required by the change above. * dm9000_shutdown(): Use mask helper function * dm9000_interrupt(): Use mask/unmask helper functions Signed-off-by: Andrew Ruder <andrew.ruder@elecsyscorp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
