I know the s3c2412 only in theory myself and am just going with the old code 
:-) . So all the irq rework stuff I did was only done on a theoretical level 
for s3c2412, so I don't really know if the current irq code runs for sure 
there.

But when looking at the real old code that must have run sucessfully at some 
point in the past [0], the comment says

"the s3c2412 changes the behaviour of IRQ_EINT0 through IRQ_EINT3 by
 having them turn up in both the INT* and the EINT* registers. Whilst
 both show the status, they both now need to be acked when the IRQs
 go off."

And then simply doing a
	__raw_writel(bitval, S3C2412_EINTPEND);
	__raw_writel(bitval, S3C2410_SRCPND);
	__raw_writel(bitval, S3C2410_INTPND);
there - which is essentially the same that happens in the current pinctrl ack 
code.

So if we assume the really old code worked at some point, I'm relativly sure 
the new one will too :-). I'll just exchange the mask ordering in 
s3c2412_eint0_3_mask, to match the ordering in the original function.
