    genirq: Allow the irqchip state of an IRQ to be save/restored · 1b7047ed
    Marc Zyngier 提交于
    There is a number of cases where a kernel subsystem may want to
    introspect the state of an interrupt at the irqchip level:
    
    - When a peripheral is shared between virtual machines,
      its interrupt state becomes part of the guest's state,
      and must be switched accordingly. KVM on arm/arm64 requires
      this for its guest-visible timer
    - Some GPIO controllers seem to require peeking into the
      interrupt controller they are connected to to report
      their internal state
    
    This seem to be a pattern that is common enough for the core code
    to try and support this without too many horrible hacks. Introduce
    a pair of accessors (irq_get_irqchip_state/irq_set_irqchip_state)
    to retrieve the bits that can be of interest to another subsystem:
    pending, active, and masked.
    
    - irq_get_irqchip_state returns the state of the interrupt according
      to a parameter set to IRQCHIP_STATE_PENDING, IRQCHIP_STATE_ACTIVE,
      IRQCHIP_STATE_MASKED or IRQCHIP_STATE_LINE_LEVEL.
    - irq_set_irqchip_state similarly sets the state of the interrupt.
