The random call introduces high latencies and is almost
unused. Disable it for -rt.

<title>genirq: Fix race condition when stopping the irq thread</title>

In irq_wait_for_interrupt(), the should_stop member is verified before
setting the task's state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and calling schedule().
In case kthread_stop sets should_stop and wakes up the process after
should_stop is checked by the irq thread but before the task's state
is changed, the irq thread might never exit:

kthread_stop                    irq_wait_for_interrupt
------------                    ----------------------

                                 ...
...                              while (!kthread_should_stop()) {
kthread-&gt;should_stop = 1;
wake_up_process(k);
wait_for_completion(&amp;kthread-&gt;exited);
...
                                     set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);

                                     ...

                                     schedule();
                                 }

Fix this by checking if the thread should stop after modifying the
task's state.

Commit fa27271bc8d2("genirq: Fixup poll handling") introduced a
regression that broke irqfixup/irqpoll for some hardware configurations.

Amidst reorganizing 'try_one_irq', that patch removed a test that
checked for 'action-&gt;handler' returning IRQ_HANDLED, before acting on
the interrupt.  Restoring this test back returns the functionality lost
since 2.6.39.  In the current set of tests, after 'action' is set, it
must precede '!action-&gt;next' to take effect.

With this and my previous patch to irq/spurious.c, c75d720fca8a, all
IRQ regressions that I have encountered are fixed.

The power management functions related to interrupts do not know
(yet) about per-cpu interrupts and end up calling the wrong
low-level methods to enable/disable interrupts.

This leads to all kind of interesting issues (action taken on one
CPU only, updating a refcount which is not used otherwise...).

The workaround for the time being is simply to flag these interrupts
with IRQF_NO_SUSPEND. At least on ARM, these interrupts are actually
dealt with at the architecture level.

commit d05c65fff0 ("genirq: spurious: Run only one poller at a time")
introduced a regression, leaving the boot options 'irqfixup' and
'irqpoll' non-functional. The patch placed tests in each function, to
exit if the function is already running. The test in 'misrouted_irq'
exited when it should have proceeded, effectively disabling
'misrouted_irq' and 'poll_spurious_irqs'.

The check for an already running poller needs to be "!= 1" not "== 1"
as "1" is the value when the first poller starts running.
