[05/15] irqchip: Mask the non-type/sense bits when translating an IRQ

The firmware parameter that contains the IRQ sense bits may also contain
other data. When return the IRQ type, bits outside of these sense bits
should be masked. If these bits are not masked and
irq_create_fwspec_mapping() is called to map an IRQ, then the comparison
of the type returned from irq_domain_translate() will never match
that returned by irq_get_trigger_type() (because this function masks the
none sense bits) and so we will always call irq_set_irq_type() to program
the type even if it was not really necessary.

Currently, the downside to this is unnecessarily re-programmming the type
but nevertheless this should be avoided.

The Tegra LIC, TI Crossbar and GIC-V3 irqchips all have client instances
(from reviewing the device-tree sources) where bits outside the IRQ sense
bits are set, but do not mask these bits. Therefore, ensure these bits
are masked for these irqchips.

For GICv3, this shouldn't be the case. The DT clearly says that the 3rd
field should only contain the trigger description. It looks like people
have been copying their GICv2 DT and simply slapped the v3 description
in the middle, without changing their interrupt specifiers. Duh.

I guess this patch doesn't hurt though.

Hmmm ... I was just double checking on this for the gic-v3 by wading
through the DTS files, and may be there is no issue here. However,
looking at the current code it is a bit inconsistent between firmware
types ...

 static int gic_irq_domain_translate(struct irq_domain *d,
                                     struct irq_fwspec *fwspec,
                                     unsigned long *hwirq,
                                     unsigned int *type)
 {
         if (is_of_node(fwspec->fwnode)) {
                 if (fwspec->param_count < 3)
                         return -EINVAL;

                 switch (fwspec->param[0]) {
                 case 0:                 /* SPI */
                         *hwirq = fwspec->param[1] + 32;
                         break;
                 case 1:                 /* PPI */
                         *hwirq = fwspec->param[1] + 16;
                         break;
                 case GIC_IRQ_TYPE_LPI:  /* LPI */
                         *hwirq = fwspec->param[1];
                         break;
                 default:
                         return -EINVAL;
                 }

                 *type = fwspec->param[2] & IRQ_TYPE_SENSE_MASK;
                 return 0;
         }

         if (is_fwnode_irqchip(fwspec->fwnode)) {
                 if(fwspec->param_count != 2)
                         return -EINVAL;

                 *hwirq = fwspec->param[0];
                 *type = fwspec->param[1];
                 return 0;
         }

         return -EINVAL;

Yes, it doesn't but I think I will leave this alone for now, given that
I can't find a case where this would be a problem.

Cheers

That's because param[1] doesn't really come from the firmware. It is
actually provided directly by acpi_dev_get_irq_type, so more or less
guaranteed to be a valid value.

Thanks,
