What do you mean? The old patch was not merged to mainline. I have checked 3.6-rc7 kernel source,
but there isn't.

The s5p_register_gpio_interrupt function is called from the board file like mach-nuri.c
mach-universal_c210.c. mach-goni.c generally. And also, setting GPIO pin to INTERRUPT mode codes
(ex: s3c_gpio_cfgpin(gpio, S3C_GPIO_SFN(0xf));) follow the s5p_register_gpio_interrupt function.
It's better to remain setting INTERRUPT mode. This patch just prevents from changing to INPUT mode
by gpio_direction_input in any driver's probe function.
