In general I am always for the simplest solution, however in this case
it is not only a matter of simplicity but also a matter of correctness
and integration with the rest of linux irq handling infrastructure.

Obviously if something in this patch is inconsistent we could get less
correct and more complicated code so thanks for helping out making sure
it is consistent! If you find any more flaws please let me know :)
