Subject: [ PATCH ] PowerPC cascade UIC IRQ handler fix.

PPC44x cascade UIC irq handler fix.

According to PPC44x UM, if an interrupt is configured as level-sensitive,
and a clear is attempted on the UIC_SR, the UIC_SR field is not
cleared if the incoming interrupt signal is at the asserted polarity.
This causes us to enter a cascade handler twice, since we first ack
parent UIC interrupt and ack child UIC one after that.
The patch checks child UIC msr value and returns IRQ_HANDLED
if there're no pending interrupts. Otherwise we get a kernel panic
with a "Fatal exception in interrupt" (illegal vector).
The patch also fixes status flags.
