On which linux-next version you are seeing this?

This was with next-20160922. But testing it again this is just another
regression caused by "softirq: fix tasklet_kill() and its users", so adding
Santosh to Cc.

So no need to revert $subject patch.

So your driver also looks like fiddling with tasklet core structures if
you got impacted because of the core change.

How is that? None of the drivers in the twl6040 stack uses tasklets
explicitly. The core uses regmap_irq and the drivers use threaded irq when
they need interrupt handling, but no tasklet, no fiddling with internals.

May be MFD core or some up dependency for this driver does that.
If not then you shouldn't be impacted because of the change.

Santosh
