Hi Arnd,
  Thanks for the review. See below for comments.

ok. Will do

ok.

I don't think that there's any reason. will replace.

I had some internal discussions on this one, and the code was originally 
written for non-threaded irqs. Now that it is only called as 
threaded_irq thread_fn, it is safe to replace the spinlock that includes 
the delay with a mutex instead.

I'll look into this one.

what is not needed ?

I'll remove it.

ok

why make this global ?

ok.

ok, I'll look into this.
