From 96e2c487933e5f69e98fffdcae2c35c78a671c07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Lord Date: Sat, 17 May 2008 13:38:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] sata_mv: cache main_irq_mask register in hpriv Part five of simplifying/fixing handling of the main_irq_mask register to resolve unexpected interrupt issues observed in 2.6.26-rc*. Keep a cached copy of the main_irq_mask so that we don't have to stall the CPU to read it on every pass through mv_interrupt. This significantly speeds up interrupt handling, both for sata_mv, and for any other driver/device sharing the same PCI IRQ line.
