2.6.25-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Geoff Levand commit 83a798207361cc26385187b2e71efa2b5d75de7f upstream Commit de85422b94ddb23c021126815ea49414047c13dc, 'USB: fix interrupt disabling for HCDs with shared interrupt handlers' changed usb_add_hcd() to strip IRQF_DISABLED from irqflags prior to calling request_irq() with the justification that such a removal was necessary for shared interrupts to work properly. Unfortunately, the change in that commit unconditionally removes the IRQF_DISABLED flag, causing problems on platforms that don't use a shared interrupt but require IRQF_DISABLED. This change adds a check for IRQF_SHARED prior to removing the IRQF_DISABLED flag. Fixes the PS3 system startup hang reported with recent Fedora and OpenSUSE kernels. Note that this problem is hidden when CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y (ps3_defconfig), as local_irq_enable_in_hardirq() is defined as a null statement for that config.
