I guess there is a risk of them "handling" the IRQ twice,
although it is hard to see why you would write the driver that
way. Also since they are sequencial the second would I guess
just see that no IRQs are pending.

The intention for calling both is that it facilitates using
the same IRQ handler for I2C and SoundWire. At least on the
Cirrus devices there are a bunch of chip specific registers
that need treated exactly the same on I2C and SoundWire, but
then a couple of extra registers that need handled in the
SoundWire case. This way the handling of those can be kept
completely in the SoundWire part of the code and not ifdef-ed
into the main IRQ path.

Thanks,
