Following patch fixes the issue of interrupt handler not getting
called. I tested it using GPIO3 on DM365. On applying this, I
see a constant rate of 4-5 interrupts per second on that line.
Yet to figure out what is triggering those. Anyway I will wait for
you to test this after you are back before sending this to Grant.

Thanks,
Sekhar

Subject: [PATCH] gpio/davinci: fix enabling of unbanked GPIO IRQs

Unbanked GPIO IRQ handling code made a copy of just
the irq_chip structure for GPIO IRQ lines which caused
problems after the generic IRQ chip conversion because
there was no valid irq_chip_type structure with the
right "regs" populated. irq_gc_mask_set_bit() was
therefore accessing random addresses.

Fix it by making a copy of irq_chip_type structure
instead. This will ensure sane register offsets.
