[alsa-devel] [RFC: PATCH] ALSA: hda - clear IRQ statu twice on some Intel platforms

[libin.yang at linux.intel.com]

From: Libin Yang <libin.yang at linux.intel.com>

On some Intel platforms, we found the interrupt issue in
the below scenario:
1. driver is in irq handler
2. there is another interrupt from HW after interrupt status
   is cleared and before exiting from interrupt handler
3. exit from the current irq handling

After exiting the irq handler, it should raise another
interrupt for driver to handle the new interrupt. But actually,
it failed to raise the interrupt and driver will never have
chance to clear the interrupt status.

The patch clears the interrupt status again just before exiting
for interrupt handler. This can reduce the contest dramatically.
