> - twl_irq_thread() <<twl4030-irq.c>>: We have new registers to read interrupts from. No more PIH and SIH. So the core loop that dispatches the interrupt changes. We can also use an I2C burst read to get 3 interrupt registers in one shot for TWL6030.

You'd probably only need to make changes to register defines but almost
everything else could remain as is. There shouldn't be any need for
creating separate files.
