Getting closer...

Given that we wait for the CPUs to finish enabling/disabling the IRQ, I
actually meant pass the pointer to the IRQ, which removes the horrible
casts in the caller.

Thanks for moving the mask manipulation out. It now makes it obvious that we
don't care about the mask at all for PPIs, so that can be removed (the code
you have is racy against hotplug anyway).

I took the liberty of writing a fixup for you (see below). Can you test it
on your platform please?

Cheers,

Will
