Hi

Looks almost good to me. Two issues:

If there is an interrupt while there was no pending request the
function returns early in line 269. You should return IRQ_HANDLED
there as well.

I you need to make sure that irq thread is not running here. Best
would probably to use disable_irq and then enable it again during resume.
synchronize_irq might work as well though, since we don't do anything
in the irq handler if no request is pending.

It would be nice if you could create further patches with `git
format-patch` so I can easily `git am` them into the tree(With correct
author information and everything).

Thanks for your help :)
