Marc Zyngier d7f39c40eb irqchip/bcm2836: Fix IPI acknowledgement after conversion to handle_percpu_devid_irq
It appears that despite its name, the bcm2836_arm_irqchip_ipi_eoi()
callback is an acknowledgement, and not an EOI. This means that
we lose IPIs that are made pending between the handling of the
IPI and the write to LOCAL_MAILBOX0_CLR0. With the right timing,
things fail nicely.

This used to work with handle_percpu_devid_fasteoi_ipi(), which
started by eoi-ing the interrupt. With the standard fasteoi flow,
this doesn't work anymore.

So let's use this callback for what it is, an ack. Your favourite
RPi-2/3 is back up and running.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
