- Decide on a case-per-case basis whether to make all irqchips threaded.

We recently ran into this in the GPIO subsystem as Grygorii Strashko
is working on RT on the ARM OMAP. So I drafted a checklist:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-gpio&m=144382150627266&w=2

Feedback welcome. I don't know if I even got the details right in that
checklist. There are a few irqchips around:

$ git grep 'struct irq_chip ' arch/ drivers/ | wc -l
721

If this isn't done I guess that for example a sudden IRQ on a GPIO
pin can delay a deadline. Not good.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
