From 4cd5d1115c2f752ca94a0eb461b36d88fb37ed1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2013 20:00:43 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] irq: Don't re-enable interrupts at the end of irq_exit Commit 74eed0163d0def3fce27228d9ccf3d36e207b286 "irq: Ensure irq_exit() code runs with interrupts disabled" restore interrupts flags in the end of irq_exit() for archs that don't define __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED. However always returning from irq_exit() with interrupts disabled should not be a problem for these archs. Prior to this commit this was already happening anytime we processed pending softirqs anyway.
