Why do you use ..._nosync in this context? Do you not care about exactly when
the irq is actually disabled? Maybe you must use _nosync, I don't know, but I
get the feeling that you just copied the code from the ISR. Anyway, the
question is if this is still adequate synchronization? Everything might very
well be safe and in order, but this is not clear to me from neither the code,
the (nonexisting) comments nor the patch description.

I'm no IRQ expert, I'm just asking questions...

Cheers,
Peter
