The en/disable_irq() functions keep track of the 'depth': i.e. if
interrupts are disabled twice, then it needs to enable_irq() calls to
enable them again. The cec-pin framework didn't take this into accound
and could disable irqs multiple times, and it expected that a single
enable_irq() would enable them again.
Move all calls to en/disable_irq() to the kthread where it is easy
to keep track of the current irq state and ensure that multiple
en/disable_irq calls never happen.
If interrupts where disabled twice, then they would never turn on
again, leaving the CEC adapter in a dead state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
