Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] ARM: orion: replace setup_irq() by request_irq()
Hi afzal,
> request_irq() is preferred over setup_irq(). Invocations of setup_irq()
> occur after memory allocators are ready.
>
> Per tglx[1], setup_irq() existed in olden days when allocators were not
> ready by the time early interrupts were initialized.
>
> Hence replace setup_irq() by request_irq().
