OK. Here is alternative patch. Do you have access to an i.MX21 to test
this on?

This patch fixes the driver so that the irq is requested as disabled. This
prevents double irq enabling and also does not require the interrupt to
be disabled within the interrupt handler. (Actually, I beleive this was
the true intention of the original author.)

The patch is against linux-next 20100618.
