PATCH 1/1 powerpc: mpic: minor optimization of ipi handler

Jeff Garzik pointed out that we don't actually have to lookup the mpic instance since it's passed in as the interrupt handler data for IPIs.

Jeff Garzik pointed out that we don't actually have to lookup the mpic instance since it's passed in as the interrupt handler data for IPIs.

Note that's typically one of the annoying case where we use "irq" for a good reasons, getting the way of Jeff attempt at removing this argument.

I suppose a working approach would be to have 4 mpic IPI handlers...

Ben.

We still need the _irq_, but we don't need to lookup the mpic based on it.

We knew the mpic pointer at irq setup time, and passed it in as the argument to pass to the handler. Doing a second lookup is just extra overhead, it should return the same controller:

void mpic_request_ipis(void)

{
        struct mpic *mpic = mpic_primary;
        int i, err;
        static char *ipi_names[] = {
                "IPI0 (call function)",
                "IPI1 (reschedule)",
                "IPI2 (unused)",
                "IPI3 (debugger break)",
        };
        BUG_ON(mpic == NULL);

        printk(KERN_INFO "mpic: requesting IPIs ... \n");

        for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
                unsigned int vipi = irq_create_mapping(mpic->irqhost,
                                                       mpic->ipi_vecs[0] + i);
                if (vipi == NO_IRQ) {
                        printk(KERN_ERR "Failed to map IPI %d\n", i);
                        break;
                }
                err = request_irq(vipi, mpic_ipi_action,
                                  IRQF_DISABLED|IRQF_PERCPU,
                                  ipi_names[i], mpic);
                if (err) {
                        printk(KERN_ERR "Request of irq %d for IPI %d failed\n",
                               vipi, i);
                        break;
                }
        }

Optimize MPIC IPIs, by passing in the IPI number as the argument to the handler, since all we did was translate it back based on which mpic the interrupt came though on (and that was always the primary mpic).

Oh, I see what you mean. You didn't make it easy to parse. :)

This should actually do the work.
