H A D | sata_mv.c | diff 96e2c487933e5f69e98fffdcae2c35c78a671c07 Sat May 17 12:38:00 CDT 2008 Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> 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.
