Pete:

I've got a question concerning irq.c. In intc0_req0_irqdispatch() (linux_2_4
branch) on lines 545 thru 552, the code reads:

      for (i=0; i<32; i++) {
          if ((intc0_req0 & (1<<i))) {
              intc0_req0 &= ~(1<<i);
              do_IRQ(irq, regs);
              break;
          }
          irq++;
      }

My question is: why do we increment i and irq independently?
Why doesn't the code read:

      for (i=0; i<32; i++) {
          if ((intc0_req0 & (1<<i))) {
              intc0_req0 &= ~(1<<i);
              do_IRQ(i, regs);
              break;
          }
      }

Thanks for your help!

-Jeff
