Yeah - I certainly didn't feel like I understood the whole scheme at the time.
It also wasn't documented anywhere or as well developed as it is today.

I still think the REVISIT_DESIGN_ISSUE comment was accurate though: one could disable an IRQ
but not specify which user of a shared IRQ was to be disabled. Ditto for mask/unmask calls
that have been recently removed.

Anyway, I've gotten more than half way through the first diff and clearly
the more interesting bits are still to come. :^)
And so far it looks good to me.

thanks,
grant
