I have tried using it in my patch3 of this series..

Ok.

May be yes.

We are checking if there is any transfer left, if no we are signalling the
flash device about the end of transfer.

Yes, there is WC interrupt enable bit which enables the interrupt. This
interrupt
gets disabled by writing to the CLEAR reg in the threaded irq.

I am not sure about the exact flow. If we see the api description, it
says about irq getting
freed automatically.
Practically, I will check that on removing the driver, cat
/proc/interrupts should not show
the required interrupt getting registered.
Though, I see an api also existing "devm_free_irq", which explicitly un
allocate your irq requested
through devm_* variants.
