[patch added to the 3.12 stable tree] ARM: OMAP2+: INTC: Acknowledge stuck active interrupts

From: Stefan Sørensen <stefan.sorensen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 698b48532539484b012fb7c4176b959d32a17d00 upstream.

When an interrupt has become active on the INTC it will stay active
until it is acked, even if masked or de-asserted. The
INTC_PENDING_IRQn registers are however updated and since these are
used by omap_intc_handle_irq to determine which interrupt to handle,
it will never see the active interrupt. This will result in a storm of
useless interrupts that is only stopped when another higher priority
interrupt is asserted.

Fix by sending the INTC an acknowledge if we find no interrupts to
handle.
