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).
