[ Upstream commit 897120d41e7afd9da435cb00041a142aeeb53c07 ] Checking value of MCP_INTF in mcp23s08_irq suggests that the handler may be called even when there is no interrupt pending. But the actual interrupt could happened between reading MCP_INTF and MCP_GPIO. In this situation we got nothing from MCP_INTF, but the event gets acknowledged on the expander by reading MCP_GPIO. This leads to losing events. Fix the problem by not reading any register until we see something in MCP_INTF. The error was reproduced and fix tested on MCP23017.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
