Thanks Wolfram.

I wonder if we can not have something similar than what we do for host notify
for removing the worker all together:

In host notify, we request a new IRQ number, and when the Host Notify
function is called, we simply call generic_handle_irq(). Switching
i2c-parport to something similar could help us remove this worker
entirely. But given this change would require to actually have a device
handled by i2c-parport, we might postpone this later.

Other than that, the patch looks good to me. The commit message is a
little bit messy IMO, and it took me a while to understand all the
subtleties (most of the issues raised in the messaged are simpler to
understand when reading the code).

Anyway, not a big deal, this one is:
