[En-Nut-Discussion] Cortex ih_xxx_interuptY code duplication, continued

Hi Uwe,

What about the same approach Linux goes?

You can register as much IRQ handlers to one IRQ as you like. Every
handler now has to return if it handled the IRQ or not. As long as the
IRQ was not handled the next handler will be called.

This way we would have to handle a linked list of IRQ handlers for each
IRQ. In most cases this will end up in just a single call which does not
add (much) cycles to the IRQ handling at all.

Just an Idea. I'll try to setup a demo implementation tomorrow, which
might make thinks a little clearer.

Bye,

Ole
