commit 13c785323b36b845300b256d0e5963c3727667d7 upstream. If there is a stuck irq that the handler doesn't address, returning IRQ_HANDLED unconditionally makes it impossible for the irq core to detect the problem and disable the irq. So only return IRQ_HANDLED if an event was handled. A stuck irq is still problematic, but with this change at least it only makes the UART nonfunctional instead of occupying the (usually only) CPU by 100% and so stall the whole machine.

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. 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.
