[1/3] kernel, irq: Initial implementation of interrupt prioritization infrastructure.

Commit Message

Tomasz Nowicki Aug. 26, 2013, 3:36 p.m. UTC

Some of the interrupt controller allow to prioritize interrupts.
All of interrupts have equal priority so far. This commit add
infrastructure to manipulate interrupt signaling order which means
that some of them can take precedence over the others.

Initial implementation assume three priority level:
HIGH - interrupt which need to be served ASAP
DEFAULT - default interrupt priority
LOW - interrupt which doesn't care about response latency

Such generic priority levels approach require mapping to the architecture
specific value. It could be done using static allocated table like:

static unsigned int priority_map [SIZE] = {
	[IRQP_HIGH]	= 0x00,
	[IRQP_DEFAULT]	= 0xa0,
	[IRQP_LOW]	= 0xe0,
};
It allow us to be compatible in case of irqpriority_t (see include/linux/irqpriority.h)
further modification.
