No.

denali->irq_lock avoids a race between denali_isr() and
denali_wait_for_irq().


The line
     denali->irq_status |= irq_status;
in denali_isr() accumulates all events that have happened
since denali_reset_irq().

If the interested IRQs have already happened
before denali_wait_for_irq(), it just return immediately
without using completion.

I do not mind adding a comment like below
if you think my intention is unclear, though.

        /* Return immediately if interested IRQs have already happend. */
        if (irq_mask & irq_status) {
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&denali->irq_lock, flags);
                return irq_status;
        }

I do not see a point in your suggestion.

denali_isr() reads out IRQ_STATUS(i) and immediately clears IRQ bits.

IRQ events triggered by previous events are accumulated in denali->irq_status.

denali_reset_irq() clears it.

        denali->irq_status = 0;


Again, denali->irq_lock avoids a race between denali_reset_irq() and
denali_irq(),
so this works correctly.
