Hi Stephan,

Yep, that was it!

Now while looking at some of the other drivers, I noticed the use
of the following syntax:

   unsigned long flags;
   local_irq_save(flags);

   ... mfdcr, mtdcr, etc operations ...

   local_irq_restore(flags);

which is treating the operations on the DCRs as a critical section.

I should probably be doing the same when I enable the external IRQs
and modify the GPIO registers.

Any comments on that?

Dave
