Yep, I figured out as much myself too while thinking a bit more about this
this morning.

So what I'm going to do in my next version of this patch is use 2
irqchip structures for the sun4i irqchip, one to describe the special
IRQ 0 and for all the others.

As mentioned in my previous mail doing an ack (or an eio) seems to
be unnecessary for all but IRQ 0.

I do wonder if handle_level_irq is the right handle*irq function
to use in this case, since this is strictly used in the non smp
case I think that the mask / unmask done by handle_level_irq is
not necessary for non threaded handlers. So what would be the
correct handle*irq function to use in this case ?

Note the irqs are level irqs. IOW they may stay asserted while
the handler runs because of the handler and a new irq raising.

Regards,

Hans
