>From 0742fc49405b2a6f562981f61d93198e1595f30d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shreshtha Kumar Sahu <shreshthakumar.sahu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:23:19 +0530 Subject: [PATCH v2] amba-pl011: clear previous interrupts before request_irq All previous interrupts should be cleared before installing interrupt handler i.e. before request_irq. pl011_shutdown clears the interrupt register but there may be case where bootloader transfers control to kernel and there are some pending interrupts. In this case interrupt handler will get called even before interrupt mask is enabled.
