[PATCH] qe_ic: Do a sync when masking interrupts.

Scott Wood scottwood at freescale.com
Fri Oct 20 04:03:08 EST 2006


This patch causes a sync do be done after masking a QE interrupt, to
ensure that the masking has completed before interrupts are enabled.
This allows the masking of the cascade IRQ to be removed without causing
spurious interrupts.

The mask_and_ack function is also removed and set to the mask function,
as the two are identical.
