Add omap_gpio_disable_irq and omap_gpio_enable_irq
calls in gpio-omap.

Currently, kernel cannot disable gpio interrupts in
case of a irq storm, so add omap_gpio_disable/enable_irq
so that interrupts can be disabled/enabled.

Thanks for this patch.  Can you give a bit more context on the
problem(s) this solves and on which SoCs/platforms it was
developed/validated?

Sorry for the late response. Patch was tested/developed on am335x
device BBB, If you feed a PWM signal at 200KHz frequency to
GPIO, and execute gpiomon 0 12 &, Linux will be unresponsive
even after CTRL+C without these 2 functions in this patch. Once
this patch is applied, you can get console back after hitting
CTRL+C and then proceed to kill gpiomon.

In addtion to Judith's explanation, when the PWM is applied to a GPIO
pin, kernel detects the interrupt storm and disables the irq, however,
without these callbacks, this gpio platform driver doesn't really
disable the interrupt in the gpio controller, so the interrupt storm is
still happening and handled by this gpio controller driver then causes
Linux unresponsive.

-Bin.

I take it that this is a fix then and should have relevant Fixes and Cc tags?

ok, will send v3 with fixes tag.
