Re: [PATCH 3/3] IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passingto IRQ handlers

The overwhelming majority of irq handlers don't use the 'irq' argument either... the driver-supplied pointer is what drivers use, exclusively, to differentiate between different instances.

If we are going to break all the irq handlers, I'd suggest going ahead and removing that one too.
