/*
 * On Macs with a genuine VIA chip there is no way to mask an individual slot
 * interrupt. This limitation also seems to apply to VIA clone logic cores in
 * Quadra-like ASICs. (RBV and OSS machines don't have this limitation.)
 *
 * We used to fake it by configuring the relevant VIA pin as an output
 * (to mask the interrupt) or input (to unmask). That scheme did not work on
 * (at least) the Quadra 700. A NuBus card's /NMRQ signal is an open-collector
 * circuit (see Designing Cards and Drivers for Macintosh II and Macintosh SE,
 * p. 10-11 etc) but VIA outputs are not (see datasheet).
 *
 * Driving these outputs high must cause the VIA to source current and the
 * card to sink current when it asserts /NMRQ. Current will flow but the pin
 * voltage is uncertain and so the /NMRQ condition may still cause a transition
 * at the VIA2 CA1 input (which explains the lost interrupts). A side effect
 * is that a disabled slot IRQ can never be tested as pending or not.
 *
 * Driving these outputs low doesn't work either. All the slot /NMRQ lines are
 * (active low) OR'd together to generate the CA1 (aka "SLOTS") interrupt (see
 * The Guide To Macintosh Family Hardware, 2nd edition p. 167). If we drive a
 * disabled /NMRQ line low, the falling edge immediately triggers a CA1
 * interrupt and all slot interrupts after that will generate no transition
 * and therefore no interrupt, even after being re-enabled.
 *
 * So we make the VIA port A I/O lines inputs and use nubus_disabled to keep
 * track of their states. When any slot IRQ becomes disabled we mask the CA1
 * umbrella interrupt. Only when all slot IRQs become enabled do we unmask
 * the CA1 interrupt. It must remain enabled even when cards have no interrupt
 * handler registered. Drivers must therefore disable a slot interrupt at the
 * device before they call free_irq (like shared and autovector interrupts).
 *
 * There is also a related problem when MacOS is used to boot Linux. A network
 * card brought up by a MacOS driver may raise an interrupt while Linux boots.
 * This can be fatal since it can't be handled until the right driver loads
 * (if such a driver exists at all). Apparently related to this hardware
 * limitation, "Designing Cards and Drivers", p. 9-8, says that a slot
 * interrupt with no driver would crash MacOS (the book was written before
 * the appearance of Macs with RBV or OSS).
