So after staring a while into the m68k code I came up with the
following (untested and uncompiled) solution:
Instead of doing the HARDIRQ fiddling and the softirq handling from
the low level entry code, I provided an irq_exit_nested() variant
which has an argument to tell the core code, that it shouldn't invoke
softirq handling and the nohz exit code. That way 4 HARDIRQ bits in
preempt_count() should be sufficient and we can move them around as we
see fit without being bound by some magic asm code fiddling with it.
By modifying do_IRQ to return an indicator whether this is the last
irq in the chain, we can also simplify the asm code significantly.
Can you have a look with m68k eyes on that please? I'm sure that my
vague memory of the 68k ASM tricked me into doing something
fundamentally wrong :)
Thanks,
tglx

Subject: m68k: Deal with interrupt nesting in the core code
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>
Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2013 11:56:58 +0200
m68k increments the HARDIRQ part of preempt_count in the low level
interrupt entry code, which prevents the core code from restructuring
the preempt_count layout.
This is done to prevent softirq invocation for
nested interrupts. The nesting can happen due to the interrupt
priority scheme of the 68k.
This patch removes the low level handling and moves it to the
interrupt core code by providing an irq_exit_nested() variant. The
nested argument to this function tells the core code whether to invoke
softirqs or not.
Also let do_IRQ() and the other handler variants return the nest
indicator so the low level entry code can utilize this to select
either immediate return or the expensive work functions.
