In whole of the series the ISR you have converted to threads using threaded_irq are very
small in size. They are like quick_change_handlers. So only advantage is the particular

I might be wrong here but it might introduce the spurious IRQ's because of bit of delay in the processing.What is the motive for this change ? Are we using this API as it suppose to be ?

the irq chip is connected through i2c and that mandate us to handle irqs in thread context. Now that we have kernel-wise api for that, we're just moving towards it instead of definint our own stuff and the lockdep shortcuts we had to put before.

I boot tested these patches on a 3430-based board and it seems to be working fine. Did a few tests with usb only. I can see I get the usb presence irq correctly.
