It is possible that in the following order, one irq is resent twice:
CPU 1 CPU 2
ics_check_resend()
lock ics_lock
see resend set
unlock ics_lock
/* change affinity of the irq */
kvmppc_xics_set_xive()
write_xive()
lock ics_lock
see resend set
unlock ics_lock
icp_deliver_irq() /* resend */
icp_deliver_irq() /* resend again */
It doesn't have any user-visible effect at present, but needs to be avoided
when the following patch implementing the P/Q stuff is applied.
This patch clears the resend flag before releasing the ics lock, when we
know we will do a re-delivery after checking the flag, or setting the flag.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
