H A Dqdio_thinint.cdiff 9c159bbc14ba196d590dc1a2fe7931ccfe73db98 Fri Mar 20 08:00:00 CDT 2020 Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> s390/qdio: clear DSCI early for polling drivers

Polling drivers in a configuration with 1 Input Queue currently keep
their DSCI armed all the way through the poll cycle, until
qdio_start_irq() clears it.

_Any_ intermittent QDIO interrupt delivered to tiqdio_thinint_handler()
will thus cause
1) the 'adapter_int' statistic to be incremented,
2) a call to tiqdio_call_inq_handlers() for this device, and then
3) the 'int_discarded' statistics to be incremented.

This causes overhead & complexity in the IRQ path, along with ambiguity
in the statistics.
On the other hand the device should be in IRQ avoidance mode during a
poll cycle, so there won't be a lot of DSCI ping-pong that this
micro-optimization could prevent.

So align the DSCI handling with what we already do for devices with
multiple Input Queues: clear it right away while processing the IRQ.

For the non-polling path this means that we no longer need to handle
the 1-queue case separately.
