mpc8248 SEC -- interrupt handler 'is' invoked

[Vikas Aggarwal]

Hi Kim,
Yes, i checked to my knowledge that i am doing all these steps and also
checked the
bit positions.

I will send you the code excerpts. The code was written for 2.4 kernel and
8555E(downloaded from freescale)  and i ported it to  8248/kernel 2.6.

thanks for your help
