ARM: 7377/1: vic: re-read status register before dispatching each IRQ handler
handle_IRQ may briefly cause interrupts to be re-enabled during soft IRQ processing on the exit path, leading to nested handling of VIC interrupts. Since the current code does not re-read the VIC_IRQ_STATUS register, this can lead to multiple invocations of the same interrupt handler and spurious interrupts to be reported. This patch changes the VIC interrupt dispatching code to re-read the status register each time, avoiding duplicate invocations of the same handler.
