> 
> The cleanup_irq clears the arbiter bit, clears the pmic interrupt
> and disables it at the pmic in that order. The last disable in
> cleanup_irq races with request_irq() in that it stomps over the
> enable issued by request_irq. Fix this by not writing to the pmic
> in cleanup_irq. The latched bit will be left set in the pmic,
> which will not send us more interrupts even if the enable bit
> stays enabled.

> When a client wants to request an interrupt, use the activate
> callback on the irq_domain to clear latched bit. This ensures
> that the latched, if set due to the above changes in cleanup_irq
> or when the bootloader leaves it set, gets cleaned up, paving way
> for upcoming interrupts to trigger.
> 
> With this, there is a possibility of unwanted triggering of
> interrupt right after the latched bit is cleared - the interrupt
> may be left enabled too. To avoid that, clear the enable first
> followed by clearing the latched bit in the activate callback.
