I am running 2.6.20.1 and i cannot find any invocations sadly.May be i missed drivers :-(. Will get back to you soon. IRC , I think SA_INTERRUPT FLAG has also changed.
I am seeing in a kernel from mips-linux.org and not from a stock kernel. Also yes, SA_INTERRUPT is on its way out, but the functionality (disabling irqs on all CPUs) will be retained.
