Apologies for the multiple emails, yeah looking at this I think
need some more information on how the hardware that patch was
addressing works. I don't quite understand what was wrong with
the old code even in the inverted case, the old code wrote a 1 to
every bit except the interrupt being cleared which gets a 0. This
feels like how I would have thought a write 0 to clear IRQ would
work, you don't want to clear any other bits so you write 1 to
them.

The update_bits is really problematic as even in the write 0 to
clear case, if a new interrupt asserts between the regmap_read
and regmap_write that make up the update_bits, you will clear that
new interrupt without ever noticing it.

Thanks,
Charles
