Dear Maarten,

-----Original Message-----
Fix the IRQ check to treat the negative values as No IRQ.

It seems to me that this is a real fix and needs a Fixes tag.
See below.

When irq>=0 these two lines above have a different outcome!
irq==0   =>   !!irq==false   <=>   (irq<=0)==true
irq==1   =>   !!irq==true   <=>   (irq<=0)==false

Thanks for the advice. I have not seen this all the time I looked at the
code. I accidentally forget to delete the second '!' as I did with the code
tested at the embedded device. Thanks for the advice.

Should I need to submit this patch again with a Fixup prefix or what needs
to be done?

Resubmit with complete description on what is broken and when. Incl. the Fixes: tag. The comment from Maarten suggests that it is broken in a completely different way than you describe in the commit log.

thanks,
