From 74a01180db4bbfd61304ae0ba1f60af55ffc803d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roderick Colenbrander <thunderbird2k@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2009 09:57:23 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Fix i8259 interrupt driver kernel crash on ML510 This patch fixes a null pointer exception caused by removal of 'ack()' for level interrupts in the Xilinx interrupt driver. A recent change to the xilinx interrupt controller removed the ack hook for level irqs.
