Subject: [34-longterm 050/247] rapidio: fix hang on RapidIO doorbell queue full condition

From: Thomas Taranowski <tom@...ingforge.com>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit 12a4dc43911785f51a596f771ae0701b18d436f1 upstream.

In fsl_rio_dbell_handler() the code currently simply acknowledges the QFI
queue full interrupt, but does nothing to resolve the queue full
condition.  Instead, it jumps to the end of the isr.  When a queue full
condition occurs, the isr is then re-entered immediately and continually,
forever.

The fix is to just fall through and read out current doorbell entries.
