    Subject[ 36/42] mfd: Clear twl6030 IRQ status register only once
    3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Nishanth Menon <nm@ti.com>

    commit 3f8349e6e98ba0455437724589072523865eae5e upstream.

    TWL6030 family of PMIC use a shadow interrupt status register
    while kernel processes the current interrupt event.
    However, any write(0 or 1) to register INT_STS_A, INT_STS_B or
    INT_STS_C clears all 3 interrupt status registers.

    Since clear of the interrupt is done on 32k clk, depending on I2C
    bus speed, we could in-adverently clear the status of a interrupt
    status pending on shadow register in the current implementation.
    This is due to the fact that multi-byte i2c write operation into
    three seperate status register could result in multiple load
    and clear of status and result in lost interrupts.

    Instead, doing a single byte write to INT_STS_A register with 0x0
    will clear all three interrupt status registers without the related
    risk.
