There is no pressing reason, but that misfire prevention dance looks
fragile and overly complex to me.

The completely untested patch below should block the replay for edge
interrupts from the core code. It also makes sure that the edge interrupt
is masked until the thread handler returns. All you have to do is
requesting your threaded handler with IRQF_ONESHOT | IRQF_NO_REPLAY.

I don't think you need extra race handling with that, but I might be wrong
as usual.

Thanks,
