Thanks for the reply. This interrupt handler is capable of dispatching multiple
interrupts but must return a single value - IRQ_HANDLED or IRQ_NONE. I've assumed
that returning IRQ_NONE repeatedly will trigger the spurious interrupt detection.

This implementation returns IRQ_HANDLED if any unmasked interrupts are raised,
otherwise it returns IRQ_NONE. Therefore provided any spurious interrupt isn't
always coincident with a real interrupt then it ought eventually to be identified
as spurious. The alternative - returning IRQ_NONE if there are any spurious
interrupts - seems prone to causing collateral damage.

What did you have in mind?

The interrupt "controller" is just combinatorial logic on the three level-sensitive
interrupt lines from the devices. Interrupts must be acknowledged and cleared at
source.
