For nr_idxs is larger than 1 switchtec_ioctl_event_ctl event flags will be
used by each event indexes. In current implementation the event flags are
overwritten by first call of the function event_ctl().

Preserve the event flag value with a temporary variable.

Fixes: 52eabba5bcdb ("switchtec: Add IOCTLs to the Switchtec driver")

event_ctl() overwrites several other things, in addition to ctl.flags:

  ctl.data[]
  ctl.occurred
  ctl.count

Is that what you intend?  It looks like only the values from the *last*
call of event_ctl() will be copied back to the user buffer.

Yeah, it's just SWITCHTEC_IOCTL_EVENT_IDX_ALL is perhaps a strange abuse
of the interface. The intention being that if you are querying
information about an event you'd use it's specific index. If you are
trying to set flags you can set them for all event of a specific type at
once using IDX_ALL.

Looking at it now it looks pretty ugly (and I'm not sure what I was
thinking when I wrote it). But it's what we have and this patch fixes a
bug where we aren't actually enabling/disabling all events when that's
what the user is asking for.
