Hi again Kumar.

There's no rush to submit these sorts of patches.
Nothing is going to really be improved because of these
changes.

Submit an overall rfc patch description to the various
mailing lists (affected MAINTAINERS generally don't read
lkml but do read their specific mailing list) with options
like 0 or IRQF_TRIGGER_NONE to show what the issues are
and why you're doing this.

Wait at least a week for any comment.

You'll likely get some "useless churn" emails.
You can generally ignore those.

If you get any real comments, deal with them.

Then after at least that week passes, submit the patches.

cheers, Joe
