Just another nit, can't we also return early when
desc->nr_actions == 1 (I mean, the handler cannot conflict with anything
since it is the only one registered) ?

Yep, you're right.

Absolutely, forget about that, I guess we don't have to optimize that
test anyway.

Hm, no, this one would return directly (it's an '||' operator not an
'&&' one), because we're not adding an IRQF_NO_SUSPEND handler here, and
adding IRQF_SHARED_TIMER_OK is always safe, isn't it ?

Yep.

Sure, never mind, as I said, I'm not sure extra optimization is needed
here.
