You are right, the tsc's threaded IRQ function is not re-entered, and
the driver is working actually. My bad not stating the problem clearly.
The real problem I want solve is, many platforms including ours use a
GPIO line as the tsc2007's IRQ line, and when these extra tsc2007 IRQ 
is triggered on the gpio line, that GPIO controller will fire up extra
noise IRQ accordingly, causing its ISR to be called. And my patch is
 trying to let the GPIO controller driver disable that specific IRQ pin
from tsc2007. As disable_irq will call GPIO irq_chip's irq_disable() or
mask() hook.

By grep the tsc2007_platform_data in kernel, I see most of the most of
the tsc2007 platforms are using GPIO line as tsc2007 IRQ ine. So this
should be a general problem.

Following is patch with updated log and comments.

Thanks,
Feng

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Input: tsc2007 - Disable irq when the irq thread is handling data

The TSC2007 data sheet say in some case the HW may fire some false
interrrupt, which I also met during integrating one TSC2007 device.
Most of the tsc2007 platforms including ours are using a gpio line as
tsc2007's irq line, so calling disable_irq_nosync() to actually
prevent the gpio controller from firing IRQ for tsc2007 in such case.
