From 69ab849439b506cd8dd2879527fdb64d95dd5211 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2009 14:07:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] genirq: Wake up irq thread after action has been installed The wake_up_process() of the new irq thread in __setup_irq() is too early as the irqaction is not yet fully initialized especially action->irq is not yet set. The interrupt thread might dereference the wrong irq descriptor. Move the wakeup after the action is installed and action->irq has been set.
