Subject: [PATCH] regmap: irq: clear status when disable irq

clear the status bit if the mask register doesn't prevent
the chip level irq from being asserted

OR in the following sequence, there will be irq storm happens:
1) interrupt is triggered;
2) another thread disables it(the mask bit is set);
3) _Then_ the interrupt thread is not ACKed(the status bit is not cleared),
and it's ignored;
4) if the irq is still asserted because of the uncleared status bit,
the irq storm happens;

Don't include noise like this in upstream submissions.

No, this isn't good - it'll read the hardware interrupt status again.
This will break any devices that are clear on read since enabled
interrupts will also be read. I'd suggest unconditionally acknowledging
all masked interrupts as the simplest approach, obviously it'd be better
to only acknowledge newly masked interrupts but that is more complex to
implement.

Thanks Mark, it's my fault; I'll remove it;

Yes, you are right; I'll change according to your advice and send it out later;
thanks very much for pointing this;
