Yes, I'm going to use the role framework so it will be probably changed.

I will change it.

Patch adding such extension has posted.

Yes, It should work.

I don't understand why If I don't have threaded handler why I need IRQF_ONESHOT. 
Why interrupt cannot be reenabled after hardirq handler finished ?
I do not use threaded handler so this flag seem unnecessary.

Ok , I will change this.
I used such solution because I didn't want to create to many trace events. 
I used it only for rely used messages.
