When multiple wakeup sources are defined in a system,
there is a small window, when more than one source
can trigger wakeup interrupt.

In the current implementation, the do-while() loop
can handle all wakeup sources that are recorded when
probing the status register in prcm_interrupt_handler().

When the ISR executes due to next queued wakeup, it
there is nothing to be handled and value of "c" is 0.

The comment in the code, attributing this behavior to
race with IVA2 along with WARN (and associated text)
makes this condition appear as an error condition -
while it isn't.

Though the problem was found in kernel version 2.6.32
running on AM3703 (no IVA2), it is still relevant.

This patch also fixes the comment that attributes current
behavior to race with interrupt handler on IVA2.

Quoting specific instances, on entry into the ISR, the
PM_WKST_WKUP read either 0x00010101 or 0x00010001

Where,
 Bit 0	: ST_GPT1     - GPTIMER wakeup occurred
 Bit 8	: ST_IO_EN    - IO pad wakeup occurred
 Bit 16	: ST_IO_CHAIN - The I/O wake-up scheme is enabled

This time value of "c" is 2 (or 3), but then on next
and immediate entry, value of "c" is 0 leading to WARN().

Another approach I considered was to keep track of the
number of wakeup sources handled in previous execution
of ISR, but it fails when status register indicates 3
wakeup sources.

Downgrading the WARN seemed to be the simplest solution.

Thanks for tracking this one down.

However, It's still not clear to me what is happening here.

Why is the IRQ firing if there is nothing to be handled?  That suggests
to me that the IRQ status is not properly being cleared.

[SP] On the contrary the IRQ status is actually getting cleared,
     but there are more than "1" PRCM interrupts queued.

     The do-while() clears all the interrupt sources that
     are flagged in the status register.

     When the next wakeup interrupt is getting processed, the
     status register doesn't contain any "source" to handle.
     and value of "c" is returned as 0.... leading to the
     warning.

Still confused.

If a wakeup interrupt is fired, it was caused by something.  

IOW, if "the status register doesn't contain any source",  how is

		if (irqstatus_mpu & (OMAP3430_WKUP_ST_MASK |
				     OMAP3430_IO_ST_MASK)) 

ever true?

[sp] I had been hesitant to say "nesting" because the wakeup
     interrupts seem to be independent of each other. But now
     I think - from SW perspective, it should/could be considered
     as nesting.
